Subject: ANN: selectParameters utility From: Jeni Tennison <mail@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 6 Nov 2000 10:44:03 +0000 |
Hi, The 'selectParameters' utility is an XSLT stylesheet to help you to make stylesheets that do dynamic client-side transformation based on parameters selected by the end user. Common examples are: * changing how tables are sorted * displaying different sections of an XML page * altering the language that the page should be displayed in You import the utility into your parameter-using stylesheet, document the parameters that you use in it, and call a template to add a form to the page. The input fields are automatically generated based on the documentation of the parameters. The end user fills in the form, and the values of the input fields determine the parameters to be used in the next transformation. Submitting the form reloads the XML and transforms it using those parameters. As the utility relies on client-side transformation and scripting, it will only work with MSXML version 3 (July or later). The stylesheet itself, instructions for using it, a small example and a detailed explanation of how it works, are all available from: http://www.jenitennison.com/xslt/utilities/selectParameters.xml (or http://www.jenitennison.com/xslt/utilities/selectParameters.html if you haven't got MSXML July or later installed) I hope that this is useful to you. If you have any comments or suggestions, please let me know. Cheers, Jeni --- Jeni Tennison http://www.jenitennison.com/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
