Subject:xsl transformation Author:Curtis Bennett Date:17 Feb 2005 06:44 PM
I am not sure if this is possible, so I wanted to get some feedback first. I have a bunch of different articles in an xml file, and I want to have them transformed with xsl on asp.net pages. I know how to transform them on asp.net pages.
I am wondering if I can have an asp.net page that has links for the different articles, a person clicks that link and the xml file is transformed using the same xsl file for every article.
Can I populate the links for the articles on the asp.net page from the xml file?
Perhaps my xml would look something like this
<articles>
<article>
<link>link used to populate the asp.net page?</link>
<title>XSLT</title>
<body>bunch of text</body>
</article>
</articles>
If this is possible, please advise on a starting point

Ivan,
Thank you for responding.
I was able to open the file you sent me and it displayed a data grid with the title in one column and the author in the second column. This is what I am trying to do, except I want to have the title be a link that opens the article and uses the same xsl document for every article. Is this possible with xml and xsl?

Sure
Add the XSL PI to your XML documents like in the example below
then create an hyperlink to XML directly: <p><a href="article1.xml">Article 1</a></p>
The transformation runs on client in this case.
Hope this helps
