BIWire

BIWire Homepage

(Sep 2001)

The Project:
Create an extensible, database-backed application to display and edit the OLAP content for the new BIWire site. The site used XSLT to transform XML documents generated with content from the database into HTML documents which were then sent to the user's browser. The XSL templates contained a check for 'edit' mode, allowing one template to transform the data for either viewing or editing. The actual edit page (with the text fields/areas) was only one XSL template that used the XML structure to generate the appropriate number and type of fields for the item being editied. The template chose a text field or a text area based on the length of the content being edited. All the XSL templates used information from the XML to hilight the appropriate item(s) in the left-side navigation (which was itself an included XSL template).
