XML Security Suite is a tool that provides security features such as digital signature, encryption, and access control for XML documents. These features are beyond the capability of transport-level security protocols such as Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). The goals in creating this technology were to contribute to standards development by providing sample implementations and to supply advanced technologies to partners and developers and to gather their input.

The XML Processing Plus Plus compiler converts programs written in this language's syntax into Java code that uses standard XML APIs. The language itself provides simple wrapper APIs: XmlIn and XmlOut. XmlIn is used for retrieving data from XML input streams, and XmlOut for inserting data to XML output streams. In addition, it provides a powerful "compile-time debugging" facility based on its type-checker. The type-checker runs inside the compiler and detects problems in the code.

The XI run-time engine is designed to accept an input script as a template for performing transformations. Based on the script and the direction of the transformation (from data storage to XML or from XML to data storage), XI creates the appropriate tree structures for performing the transformations. The tree structures define both the data storage procedures to be executed as well as the XML structure information, which is either an XML hierarchy to be created upon retrieval or to be selected for storage.

AurigaDoc is a java-xml-xsl based documentation tool for writing xml documents and converting them to other formats like HTML, DHTML, RTF and PDF. AurigaDoc can produce output in HTMl(single and multi-page), DHTML, PDF, RTF, PostScript, HTML Help, Java Help, Oracle help For Java, Unix Man Page, etc The idea is to keep a single document source(as xml) and convert it to various formats using XSLT.

The XML Processing Plus Plus compiler converts programs written in this language's syntax into Java code that uses standard XML APIs. The language itself provides simple wrapper APIs: XmlIn and XmlOut. XmlIn is used for retrieving data from XML input streams, and XmlOut for inserting data to XML output streams.

The XincaML language can describe the presence or value dependencies amongst nodes located on different branches of an XML tree. It can specify constraints that can't be expressed by the XML schema language and therefore supplement the existing XML schema language to insure the integrity of data. XincaML is a declarative language and its syntax is based on XML format.

The e-novative DocBook Environment (eDE) is a free, ready-to-go integrated environment for Windows enabling you to various output formats from DocBook XML sources. Currently a single HTML page, multiple HTML pages and PDF output are supported. eDE installs in a snap and lets you create output files with one command line command. Supports articles and books, includes well-documented customization.

Developped in Java, Lucid XML Toolkit offers a wide range of low and high level functions with specific features: SAX 1, SAX 2, DOM Level 1 and 2, JAXP parsers; document validation during processing; DOM tree validation made easier; XML namespace and schema support (XSchema); insertable element prediction made easier according to the DTD, the schema or the context. Based on an XML parser, Lucid XML Toolkit fully meets current standards and recommendations. It also offers better performance than top-range Java parsers already available on the market.

With eDE, you create multiple output files (single HTML page, multiple HTML pages, HTML Help, PDF) from a single DocBook XML source file. eDE installation is quick and easy. eDe enables you to work document-centric and supports advanced features like profiling, document-specific stylesheets and much more. eDE allows for easy automation of document generation and is easy to customize. A sophisticated backup and restore mechanism makes collaborative working very easy.

Lucid XML Editor is a full and easy to use software product for XML document editing. The set of functionnalities for creating and editing XML documents is available from a web navigator. Its main functionalities are: XML documents creation and modification; central document repository; assisted edition thanks to dynamic contextual menus; documents validation; localized interface.

Fleming is small utility to perform batch transforms of XML files against an XSL stylesheet. The results are then saved with a new file extension in another directory. Fleming is handy for creating a directory of HTML files from a directory of XML files. Fleming is an HTML application. It requires Internet Explorer 5.x or greater, and Microsoft XML parser 4.0.

A Sample Chapter from "Professional XSL". This chapter will provide you with enough information to start building useful XSLT stylesheets. I will introduce a number of the elements that make up the language, providing examples of their use. We will also look at a few of the functions built into the language and see how XSLT manages namespaces, whitespace and some other important issues.

Over the years, HTML has only become bigger, never smaller, because new versions had to maintain backward compatibility. That's about to change. On 5 August 2002, the first working draft of XHTML 2.0 was released and the big news is that backward compatibility has been dropped; the language can finally move on. So, what do you as a developer get in return? How about robust forms and events, a better way to look at frames and even hierarchical menus that don't require massive amounts of JavaScript. This article takes a sneak peek at what's new in XHTML 2.0 and how you might one day put it to use.

Treebeard is an XSLT IDE that allows one to load an XML file and an XSLT file (from the web or from the local file system), edit either file, and then perform transformations. Features include: Syntax highlighting; Code Completion; Plug-able XSLT transformer; FOP preview; ability to save as PDF; Template Browser; Regular expression find; UTF-8,UTF-16 and ISO-8859-1 support; and much more.

Traditional HTML forms violate many of the tenets of good markup language design, frequently mixing presentation and data. This article introduces you to XForms, an extension of XHTML that represents the next generation of Web forms. Though XForms is still in an embryonic state, it holds great promise: For instance, a form written with XForms can be written once and displayed in optimal ways on several different platforms. This article will give you a head start on this important emerging XML technology.

XMLmind FO Converter (XFC for short) is an XSL-FO to RTF converter. It takes an XSL-FO source file as input and converts it to RTF. XFC preserves the structure of the original document (e.g. a list-block element is converted to an actual RTF list) and most of the presentation information (font attributes, indentation, etc). The output RTF conforms to version 1.6 of the specification. Output conformance was checked with MS-Word 2000. XFC is a pure Java application/library.

LXS Publisher is a generic Web application enabling the publishing of XML content and based on XSL/XSLT technology. Its advanced conception confers with flexibility, portability and efficient processing and XML transformations with XSL/XSLT/FO stylesheets. LXS Publisher provides a graphical administration console which facilitates URL definition tasks associated with both XML documents and XSL stylesheets.

Presenting XML is a Java web application framework for presenting HTML, PDF, WML etc. in a device independent manner. The framework supports a flow of content (XML files, flat files, SQL, dynamic XML) through SAX pipelines and XSLT transforms to a device. It runs as a servlet in a web environment and also as a console app. It can be used, for example, to transform flat files into XML, to transform XML content into multi-part MIME mail message, to transform XML into PDF, to generate HTML web pages, etc.
