Re: more question for xml,xsl in orion
I have a XML with data and XSL with the layout information AND JSP Java code in it. How can I tell orion to: 1. Put XML and XSL together and output JSP. 2. Then compile the JSP output to html. I can get XML and XSL to merge together but the JSP compiler will not compiler the JSP output. For example, here is the code. Thanks I am not amazed that the JSP compiler does not get invoked. After all, what orion sees is a request for an XML resource. I presume you would have to somehow generate a second request (via RequestDispatcher.forward()) for the generated JSP page after doing the transformation. This would imply that the XML is never requested directly but through a servlet, which makes 2 calls (include() to invoke the transformation, then forward() to call the JSP). just my 2c Christian
RE: more question for xml,xsl in orion
OK...I didn't get to finish because some stupid key I hit sent my email out..sorry..I'll finish in this one.. I am about to dive in to XML, XSL and all that good stuff soon. My understanding is that you would want the JSP page to return XML, then apply XSL via an XSLT engine to output HTML. To make JSP return XML you just add a tag at the start of the JSP page..I forget what it is. The main thing to remember is to use br/br or br / tags and stuff where only single tags are used in HTML. If anyone knows for sure on how this would work..could you give a couple of steps as to how to do this. My guess is that you have a submission, link whatever go to a controller servlet, which then uses a URL connection to get the JSP page output (in xml form) in a StringBuffer, it then would pass that string data along with the selected XSL is then applied via the XSLT engine and returns HTML output..which you put into the response and send back.

RE: more question for xml,xsl in orion
You may want to have a Filter (a special servlet) to acomplish the XSLT... In the jsp, in the @page tag, add a Content-Type="text/xml" or whatever your filter requires... you may also place inside the xml a xsl tag which refernces the xsl file you want applied (may be dinamically generated, based on any criteria, say, user-agent, URI extension, etc.) -Original Message- From: Duffey, Kevin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Jueves, 02 de Noviembre de 2000 15:18 To: Orion-Interest Subject: RE: more question for xml,xsl in orion OK...I didn't get to finish because some stupid key I hit sent my email out..sorry..I'll finish in this one..
