Learn XSLT With <%=ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SS"]%> XSLT Video Demonstrations

Please note: As of Stylus Studio 2007 Release 2 (May 2007) support for the WYSIWYG XSLT designer has been replaced with XML Publisher, a more powerful XML-based tool for developing report generation applications.

<%=ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SS"]%>'s XSLT development tools makes it easy to visualize and learn XSLT technologies. Our WYSIWYG tools (illustrated below — click to enlarge) let you visually design XSLT stylesheets for transforming XML into HTML — without ever writing any XSLT code! The following 4 video demonstrations showcase various key aspects of our powerful XSLT tools.

This video demonstration shows you how to sort tables and how to apply advanced formatting using XSLT conditional processing. This video covers the following topics:

Performing operations on tables in the WYSIWYG XSLT editor
Using XSLT conditional processing to create advanced tables
Visually inspecting the XML source document
Drag-and-Drop operations in the WYSIWYG XSLT Editor
Sorting tables based on XPath properties
Using xsl:choose and xsl:otherwise to develop custom conditional processing expressions that control output formatting
