Implementations of XSLT (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

One of the main benefits of XML is that it separates data from its presentation. By combining XML data with an XSLT style sheet, you have a powerful way to dynamically transform and present information. XSLT style sheets extend the value of XML data. With XSLT, you can transform raw data into device-aware or customer-aware information. XSLT provides a mechanism for packaging, exchanging, and presenting XML data. With XSLT, you can perform the following tasks:

  • Transform data so it can be exchanged between businesses using different schemas.
    XSLT allows you to map one XML-based representation into another. For example, a book retailer may represent a customer order based on one schema while a book supplier may represent it with another schema. XSLT can transform the customer order taken by the book retailer into an XML-based format that matches the book supplier's schema. Once transformed, the order can be sent to the book supplier in an XML format the book supplier understands.
  • Dynamically transform XML documents into HTML documents for a variety of browsers.
    XSLT can detect the type of Web client viewing a page and format the data accordingly. This means that the same XML data can be presented in one format for a browser on a TV set-top box, and in a different format for a browser on a mobile phone. XSLT can also display data in different formats for the various versions of the same browser.
  • Dynamically transform XML data into a variety of media, including HTML documents for the Web and .pdf file format for print.
    With XSLT, you can output XML to a variety of media, including HTML for the Web and Package Definition Format (PDF) for print.
  • Dynamically filter information to present information targeted to a specific user or user group.
    For example, for an XML-based catalog, you can use one style sheet to present one set of information to retail customers, while using another style sheet to present information to wholesale customers.
