Foil 8 Shared Portals on the Web II

From Off Beat XML Uses in Computing Portals NCSA Portal/Metadata Meeting -- October 22-23 99. by Geoffrey C. Fox
1 There is an HTML document defines the shared portal itself; it instantiates particular objects and is presentation layer
  • There is an associated XSL style sheet which invokes necessary programmatic capabilities and interprets XML islands in HTML document. These islands are defined in SPDL
  • There can be many SPW's presentation layers with a given SPDL structure
  • This (HTML + Style sheet) combination replaces the current TangoInteractive "Control Applet"
2 We will re-use some existing client side Java as SP agent and control objects invoked from style sheets
3 The TangoInteractive Server can also be largely re-used
