Subject: Re[2]: [xsl] Advise on xsl usage producing very complex html From: viewga <viewga@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 31 Jan 2001 16:01:08 +0200 |
Hello David, The problem is that design is made by someone else (design agency) and when I try to breath life into it I have a messed up xsl with lots of tables etc ... which is hard to write, test, debug and in future will be hard to manage. So I want to use some kind of ColdFusion like templates, hiding design tricks from xsl providing functional implementation. But thats itself a tricky way cause if in CF one can write a template which will be used as <cf_mytemplate param1="val1">content</cf_mytemplate> in xsl it will be <xsl:call-template name="mytemplate"> <xsl:with-param name="param1" select="val1"/> <xsl:with-param name="content">Content</xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> which is far longer and less readable if compared. So ... maybe other ideas exists ??? Wednesday, January 31, 2001, 3:09:27 PM, you wrote: DC> Probably. But you'd have to give some hint about what your input looked DC> like and what your output should look like. Don't really understand how this can help, but ... anyway xml : <root> <!-- Wellformed xml coming from java classes, generated from RDBMS --> <uid>viewga</uid> <pwd>****</uid> <uinfo> <name>viewga</name><age>who cares</age> </uinfo> </root> result: <table width, height, bgcolor, cellspacing, cellpadding><tr valign, bgcolor><td> <table width, height, bgcolor, cellspacing, cellpadding><tr valign, bgcolor><td> <table width, height, bgcolor,cellspacing,cellpadding> <tr valign, bgcolor><td valign, bgcolor,align>viewga<!-- xsl:value-of select="/root/uid" --></td></tr></table></td></tr></table> and looklike html for rest of nodes -- Best regards, viewga mailto:viewga@xxxxxxxxxxxx XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
