Subject: [xsl] Re: Applying style sheet to xml obtained via URL From: "Lizzi, Vincent vincent.lizzi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 9 Aug 2016 15:47:26 -0000 |
Michele, There are a few ways to have XSLT run inside a web browser, and there are varying levels of support across different web browsers. The Native browser support for XSLT is limited to XSLT 1.0, and some browsers do not have native support for XSLT. There are products, some freely available, that allow you to run XSLT in a web browser using Javascript. The most recent are from Saxonica and support XSLT 2.0 or 3.0: Saxon CE - http://www.saxonica.com/ce/index.xml Saxon JS - http://www.saxonica.com/saxon-js/index.xml Is running XSLT in a browser a requirement for you, or could you send a request to a server to have the XSLT processed and the result delivered the browser? Cheers, Vincent From: Michele R Combs mrrothen@xxxxxxx [mailto:xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, August 09, 2016 9:43 AM To: 'xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' <xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [xsl] Applying style sheet to xml obtained via URL I have a URL that returns an xml file from our library catalog (for example, http://summit.syr.edu:7014/vxws/GetHoldingsService?bibId=2257667)<http://summ it.syr.edu:7014/vxws/GetHoldingsService?bibId=2257667)> . I want to set up a simple form where someone can enter the URL (actually I just want them to enter the BIBID -- those last 7 numbers -- then I'll construct the full URL), then click "submit" to display the XML with a specified XSL style sheet applied to it. Is there an easy way to do this? I know how to do html forms, but I'm not sure of the best way to script the "meat" of it. I googled around a bit and found this javascript http://www.w3schools.com/xsl/xsl_client.asp<http://www.w3schools.com/xsl/xsl_ client.asp> -- if I understand correctly, my form would have to pass the URL to this page as a variable, to be used in this line: xml = loadXMLDoc("[variable would go here]") Is that the best way to go, or is there a simpler method?
