How to convert XML to something readable?
I have a huge xml file and i want to convert it to a readable format.
This is how my xml file looks like:
<entries>
<entry title="earth" id="9424127" date="2006-04-19T08:22:16.140开发者_StackOverflow中文版">
<![CDATA[earth is the place where we live.]]>
</entry>
</entries>
So i have more than 5000 entries like this and i want to put them online so i can read them easily. How can i convert it?
This is the output that i want to have:
Earth
earth is the place where we live. (2006-04-19T08:22:16.140)
You could use an XSLT stylesheet to create a simple html table.
For example, this stylesheet:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output indent="yes"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:template match="node()|@*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()|@*"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="/entries">
<html>
<body>
<table border="1">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</table>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="entry">
<tr>
<td><xsl:value-of select="@title"/></td>
<td>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</td>
<td>(<xsl:value-of select="@date"/>)</td>
</tr>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
would create:
<html>
<body>
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>earth</td>
<td> earth is the place where we live. </td>
<td>(2006-04-19T08:22:16.140)</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
I have used CSS for this kind of job a couple of times. This is a good guide: http://www.w3schools.com/xml/xml_display.asp
You can very well use XSLT, so called XML Stylesheets for this.
Read about them and take a tour here: http://www.w3schools.com/xsl/
In your specific case, a rather simple solution could look something like:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<body>
<xsl:for-each select="entry">
<br />
<!-- Process CDATA somehow --> (<xsl:value-of select="@date"/>)
</xsl:for-each>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
