Conversion of XML information for web consumption is one of the most common uses of OmniMark. Some fundamental
techniques include:
- basic formatting;
- explicit hypertext generation (such as handling XREF-style markup);
- implicit hypertext generation (based on content);
- linking based on structure (creating a table of contents);
- linking based on implied structure (creating a secondary table of contents); and
- chunking (the splitting of your XML data across a number of HTML files).
You can design your OmniMark program to process input regardless of whether it is contained in flat files (DTDs and instances), or is derived from more complex storage mechanisms (having the XML information split across multiple files, or split across database fields).
