view

A view consists of one or more actions to be performed consecutively on the xml. The user can choose the preferred view from the Xopus menu.

Example

<pipeline xml="xml/doc.xml" xsd="xsd/schema.xsd">
  <view name="WYSIWYG View">
    <transform xsl="xsl/presentation.xsl" />
  </view>
  <view name="Tree View">
    <treeTransform/>
  </view>
</pipeline>

A view must contain one or more actions. The output of the final action in a view must be html. Xopus supports any number of consecutive actions in a view. This helps to modularize your xsl stylesheets and your xml formats. You can use you own type references that can be transformed into xincludes. Or transform multiple xml formats to a single intermediate format for which you have an xsl for each style (website, cd-rom, etc) of output you wish to support.
