Hi,
I have chosen to use XML for a project as it is a project that needs to produce a web page and PDF from the same content, and which also could be the first of many, and I figured that this would make things a lot easier as it would just be a case of using the existing XML structure.

Anyway, I am finding the process a bit of a steep learning curve. At the moment I am looking at designing an .xsl to transform the .xml into my website and possibly just importing the .xml into Adobe InDesign for now to do my .pdf.

However, the thing I can't seem to work out is the best way to design the website. I have created a .xsl file which makes the front page look perfectly but don't know how to start generating multiple .html pages. At the moment I am doing all my transforming in Oxygen XML Editor. I have looked into editing some of the Frameworks, Docbook HTML Chunks for example, but just can't work out where to start. I basically need to change the structure a lot, and already have some .css stylesheets which I was hoping to add but am struggling with it.

Is this the best way of doing it? By using one of the existing frameworks and customizing it? I am finding that a lot of the information out there on XML and XSL is so full of jargon and overly-descriptive instructions that it is confusing the hell out of me. If someone could offer some advice or maybe tell me where a good place is to find some information/tutorials on creating a website from XML in chunks I would be extremely grateful!!

Thanks
Russ

Consider using HTML and a PDF generator that works with HTML, like dompdf ( www.digitaljunkies.ca ) or HTML2PDF ( http://html2pdf.seven49.net/Web/ ) to generate the PDFs. Another option is to use something like www.livedocx.com as a service to generate the PDF

The trick to creating multiple page forms is to use the hidden fields.

In order to write a multi-page HTML form, you need to save the answers from the first, second, etc. pages to submit to the server when you get to the last page.

You can create multi-page Forms with FormMail.However, you need to be a very knowledgeable programmer to write safe.
