I'm wondering if AxKit will work in my situation.
I have a site written in ColdFusion that generates all output as dynamic XML. I currently have a semi-hack in place where every page captures its own output, applies an XML to HTML stylesheet and then prints the results.
Could I let the ColdFusion pages just return the raw XML (and change the MIME type of course), and let AxKit apply the stylesheet? I was poking though the features/docs list and couldnt find anything quite to that effect.
Maybe this would require apache 2.0?
As others have pointed out, writing an AxKit provider to fetch the XML from your ColdFusion server should be possible. But I'm not sure why you would want to do that, since ColdFusion MX supports XSL transformations natively. Maybe thats a newer version of ColdFusion then you're using...
I found this article discussing how to do it:
http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/mx/coldfusion/articles/xmlxslt.pdf
The provider approach would involve writing a small perl module that provides certain methods that would be used by AxKit to fetch the XML, instead of fetching it from a file on the disk. See this page for documentation: http://www.axkit.org/wiki/view/AxKit/ProviderHowTo
As to your apache 2.0 question, AxKit doesn't (yet) work with apache 2.0, so it would definitely not be required.
