Using XSLT – An Example

I really like how I can use an XML document to separate the storage of application data from its presentation. The XML document contains a self describing set of data structures that I can define using my own vocabulary definitions. One of the major advantages of these documents is how easy they can be moved across the various process boundaries that exist within enterprises. This isolation of data into an XML allows a host processing the document to make the presentation decisions. An XML document by its very definition contains no formatting or presentation requirements. This is where the Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformation (XSLT) plays a major role.

I love when I get a chance to talk with any of our local user groups. The way the attendees definitely have a passion and desire to learn more about any of the various technologies is impressive. This week I had a chance to speak with the local Business Productivity Group here in Waltham. As you might guess the topic was “Developing Solutions using InfoPath”. Once again, thanks to the power of user groups and the interest here locally we had about 100 people that attended. For those looking for the slides I have posted them here.
