Foil 32 Implementation of Front end

From Distributed Objects and Portals for Earthquake Science GEM Meeting NPAC -- June 24-25 99. by Geoffrey C. Fox


The front end is some document consisting of a mix of HTML or XML
  • The HTML is whatever you want to make a nice page
  • The XML is converted into some variant of HTML by
    • Browser default or
    • XSL style sheet
    • User Program -- logically in middle tier
  • Note HTML can include Java applets either directly or invoked from XSL style sheets
We will NOT discuss either how to code backend in PLSQL or Fortran or how to compose final rendered document in HTML
