I have a URL that returns an xml file from our library catalog (for example, http://summit.syr.edu:7014/vxws/GetHoldingsService?bibId=2257667) . I want to set up a simple form where someone can enter the URL (actually I just want them to enter the BIBID -- those last 7 numbers -- then I'll construct the full URL), then click "submit" to display the XML with a specified XSL style sheet applied to it. Is there an easy way to do this? I know how to do html forms, but I'm not sure of the best way to script the "meat" of it. I googled around a bit and found this javascript http://www.w3schools.com/xsl/xsl_client.asp -- if I understand correctly, my form would have to pass the URL to this page as a variable, to be used in this line: xml = loadXMLDoc("[variable would go here]") Is that the best way to go, or is there a simpler method?
