Hello all:
I'm new to web development, html, and xml.
I would like to setup an "news story" type html page that uses xml data files to control content. On the html page, in a table, I've placed a data island that displays "headline and short story description" data from an xml file. That works fine. What I would like to do is have the "headline and short story description" data from the first xml file link to another xml file to display "full story" data. I have looked at several web site resources looking for ways to do this but have not found a working example to learn from. All of the examples I have found are xml files linking to other xml files using an xsl file.
Is this even possible with html and xml/xsl?
I appreciate a point in the right direction.
Thanks.
