XSLT blooms with Java XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformation) offers an excellent vehicle for styling XML documents as HTML. However, it shows some weakness when the transformation requires extensive logic. When XSLT languages fail to complete the job, you can extend your stylesheets with Java classes and take advantage of both languages' features. This article demonstrates how to extend XSLT with Java. You will learn how to instantiate and invoke methods on Java objects from within an XSLT stylesheet. The article also demonstrates how XML nodes are passed to Java classes and returned back to the stylesheet for further processing.  |

XSL gives your XML some style Separating content from presentation is one of XML's major features. But eventually you need to style that XML into something presentable. That's where XSL (Extensible Stylesheet Language) comes in -- XSL transforms XML from one document type to another. Servlets provide a great platform for doing those translations. In this article you'll learn how to transform XML into HTML, using servlets.  |

Build database-powered mobile applications on the Java platform This article explains how to create mobile database applications using the Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition/Mobile Information Device Profile (J2ME/MIDP) and the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE). The authors introduce an architecture that uses JavaServer Pages (JSPs) as middleware between a MIDP frontend and a database backend. They also explain specific design decisions and implementation issues, such as persistent storage, network connection, session management, and data communication. Their discussion focuses on the integration between the client and server-side Java applications.  |

Eliminate JDBC overhead Most J2EE and other types of Java applications interact in some way with information persisted in a database. Interfacing with that database involves several iterations of SQL statements, connection management, transaction lifecycles, result processing, and exception handling. The many parts of this ritualistic dance are common in all contexts; however, this replication doesn't have to exist. This article outlines a flexible framework that remedies the repetition of interacting with a JDBC-compliant database.  |
