XSL gives your XML some style Separating content from presentation is one of XML's major features. But eventually you need to style that XML into something presentable. That's where XSL (Extensible Stylesheet Language) comes in -- XSL transforms XML from one document type to another. Servlets provide a great platform for doing those translations. In this article you'll learn how to transform XML into HTML, using servlets.   |

XSLT blooms with Java XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformation) offers an excellent vehicle for styling XML documents as HTML. However, it shows some weakness when the transformation requires extensive logic. When XSLT languages fail to complete the job, you can extend your stylesheets with Java classes and take advantage of both languages' features. This article demonstrates how to extend XSLT with Java. You will learn how to instantiate and invoke methods on Java objects from within an XSLT stylesheet. The article also demonstrates how XML nodes are passed to Java classes and returned back to the stylesheet for further processing. |

A J2EE presentation pattern: Applets with servlets and XML Sometimes a standard HTML view on your J2EE-based system doesn't offer a sophisticated enough user interface. Based on the pattern described here, you can enhance such a Web interface with the Java Plug-in. The Java Plug-in lets you embed applets that consume XML documents and display the contained data in a particular way. These XML documents contain presentation data derived from servlets looking at your business logic tier. This lets your users access powerful UI components while still retaining a strong decoupling between the business logic and presentation tiers---without complicated firewall issues. |
