Use of XSLT Formats in Creation, Maintenance and Optimization of Web Site Templates by Jay Mercer (Indiana University)

Template Formats are an extremely useful and potentially under-utilized feature of Cascade Server. This presentation will cover the following:

  1. A brief recap of basic block/XSLT format functionality, transitioning to an introduction to the use of template formats, describing the similarities and differences with the standard block/format relationship.

  2. A in-depth description of how formats can be used to create versatile templates, capable of being easily updated or restructured. Additionally, describing how template formats can be used to solve common template layout issues by enabling movement of page elements during transformation.

  3. Finally, a description of how template formats can be used to optimize page creation by streamlining the creation of common page elements, like page title, breadcrumb and page headers by outputting multiple elements using same index block.

This presentation is targeted towards people with advanced XHTML and XSLT knowledge.
