Re: XML/XSLT Editors/Tools

Understand all that. To clarify what I'm looking for:

XML is not something we're *writing* its generated by database queries, and having a *tool* to maintain DTDs based on a very large database schema, which is *changing over time* is the piece number one. Number two is that we have standardized some of the display elements based on what would go into those DTDs, and we want to generate and maintain XSLT code that can be sliced and diced into place.

The tools mentioned above appear to do some of this in much the same way as for example Bradbury's TopStyle CSS editor does: you actually do edit the code, but there's wysiwyg displays and easy navigation of the entire hierarchies (which are much more complex in xml/xslt than in CSS, but even there, if you're *really* cascading, having the *tool* figure out what's going on is invaluable). Simple syntax directed editing simply does not cut it.

I know I could write my own extensions for emacs, but the point is I don't want to write it myself!

Practical gal,
Buffy

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
