Unwired Accelerator allows you to customize XSL and XSLT templates on a per-user basis.
When you create XML applications, you specify an Extensible Style Language Transformation (XSLT) template for content transformation and a user interface (UI) template for presentation.
The XSLT template contains the language used in XSL style sheets to transform XML documents into other XML documents. The UI template specifies how to present the application; that is, shading, borders, and so on. You can customize these templates on a per-user basis for XML applications
Creating an XML sample application
Log in to Mobile Web Studio.
Select Build | Applications from the Mobile Web Studio left pane and select New from the Application Manager Status menu.
Right-click in the detail pane and select New Aggregated Application.
When the Application Builder displays, click the down arrow beside the Add button and select XML Element from the menu.
You see the XML Element Definition window.
Enter the following sample input:
XML URL –
http://p.moreover.com/ cgi-local/page?c=Biotech%20news&o=xml
Content XSLT – moreover_content_xsl
UI XSLT – pink_ui_xslt
Click Preview.
The content has a pink background, as specified in the UI XSLT. Any user who accesses an XML application that uses the specified UI XSLT sees a pink background.
Click Next until you reach the window where you enter the Element Name.
