Convert XML file to an ASPX page

[Krishnaraj Barvathaya B]

Hi I have an xml file stored in database. This XML files defines asp/html controls, its size, layout etc. Sample XML file is given below: <Label Field="Label1" Top="22" Left="24" Height="31" Width="485" Align="Left" Caption="Title Text"> <Font Name="Garamond" Size="27" Color="FFFFFF"/> </Label> <Image Field="Image1" Top="0" Left="0" Height="80" Width="735" File="Image1.jpg"/> <Label Field="Label2" Top="25" Left="18" Height="29" Width="493" Align="Left" Caption="Sub Title"> <Font Name="Garamond" Size="24" Color="FFFFFF"/> </Label> Is there any way without XSLT I can tranform this XML file into an ASPX/html page during run time. Thank you,

Not a nice idea though, but you can parse this xml and create control at runtime.

Thank you for your comments. Now I think it won’t be possible to convert to html from xml without defining a XSLT. Can anybody tell me the best way to write an xslt for the above code segment? All the controls have been defined in the xml in the same order it must appear in the web page.

Converting to HTML is a canonical example, any XSLT book or website will show examples. \
