Ushanas, One interesting dynamic use of XML, XSL, Database Data and Database Metadata can be found in some demos I built for our PLSXML suite of utilities/demos available at: http://www.oracle.com/xml/plsxml/index.html See the section on "DBXML Query and Tree Visualization Demo" This demo uses a combination of routines provided in the PLSXML packages to display the results of any SQL statement as a visual, DHTML tree display in IE5. -> Format the results of a SQL statement (with optional nested/related info, too!) in XML -> Dynamically build an XSL stylesheet based on data dictionary metadata to transform the results of the query above into a canonical "tree of nodes" -> Use a static XSL stylesheet to transform the "tree of nodes" above into a collapsible/expandible DHTML tree display in the browser. The source for these examples are in JavaScript (if stuff is done in the browser) and in PL/SQL if its running in the database, but the source code is still quite readble and would be easily "morphable" into another programming language if you're not presently using an Oracle DB. ____________________________________________________________ Steve Muench, Consulting Product Manager & XML Evangelist Java Business Objects Dev't Team - http://www.oracle.com/xml --- Begin Message ---
