XML/XSLT
Why XML?
XML was created so that richly structured documents could be
used over the web. The only viable alternatives, HTML and SGML,
are not practical for this purpose. HTML comes bound with a
set of semantics and does not provide arbitrary structure. SGML
provides arbitrary structure, but is too difficult to implement
just for a web browser.
Why XSLT?
XSLT provides a powerful transformation language for converting
instances of XML into simple text, HTML, or other XML documents.
We use the XSLT language, which itself uses XPath (used to search
XML documents), to specify how an XML document is to be translated
into the desired output.

CloverLink has been using
XML and XSLT since their inception. We employ these technologies
to provide proper separation between web site content (its underlying
data and business function) and presentation (what the user
sees and interacts with). In addition, we've designed and implemented
several web services that
perform data translation using XSLT. These services enable business
partners and disparate business applications to seamlessly exchange
data and interact with one another. |
