Barnaby NgSubject: Beginner XSLT questions
Author: Barnaby Ng
Date: 16 Aug 2001 05:04 PM
We've been referred to use Stylus Studio (actually XML Authority 1.2 was mentioned) by SoftQuad in their Xmetal. I have a small project that requires to transform a XML file into some HTML pages, and SoftQuad told me that it will very easy with Stylus Studio, as simple as drag and drop.

So far I'm able to open the XML and DTD files and browse around, but still cannot create the XSLT without writing code. The documentation mentioned using Sense:X, but that is not drag and drop. What I want is to be able to drag a few elements from my XML or DTD into this XSLT, format it and display as HTML. So is Stylus Studio the right tool?

Thanks,
Barnaby Ng

I can only imagine that SoftQuad people were talking about the wysiwyg
functionality which was available in Stylus 2.0, but which hasn't been
moved on to Stylus Studio 3.0 (the functionality as it was in Stylus 2.0
was weak and not easily extendible); we are currently working on a wysiwyg
solution which will actually let you do what you would like to do now, but
that' snot ready yet.
