Abstract:
Since XSLT 1.0 was released in 1999 it has been possible to easily aggregate and syndicate information over the web using XML. This is a case study of how our web site uses standard Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT) to make information available to others and to pull information from around the world into our web pages in an unattended fashion.
This presentation describes the XML principles involved and the XSLT facilities used and presents in detail a freely-available generic example aggregation stylesheet that anyone can download and modify for their own use on their own web sites.
The presentation is a mini tutorial/workshop for people to see code and ask questions about how to get XML and XSLT working to implement aggregation in their environments.
