Altova StyleVision Professional Edition 2009

Altova StyleVision 2009 Professional Edition is a drag-and-drop, visual XSLT stylesheet designer for graphically designing stylesheets that render eye-catching HTML and RTF output from XML or database data and create intuitive Authentic electronic forms. StyleVision is fully standards-compliant and supports XSLT 1.0, XSLT 2.0, CSS, JavaScript, and all major databases. It even has a built-in HTML importer that automatically converts an HTML page into an XML file, XSLT stylesheet, and XML Schema to allow Web designers to migrate to XML easily and efficiently. Numerous templates are provided for handling industry standard XML vocabularies such as DITA and DocBook, and you can build your own templates for use with Altova Authentic 2009, Altova's free XML and DB content editor. Authentic forms let business users directly access and edit XML documents or databases without being exposed to the underlying technology. StyleVision simplifies the creation of advanced XSLT stylesheets and electronic forms with its automated approach to stylesheet writing. The visual design interface is so straightforward; you simply drag and drop XML elements, design features, and presentation rules into your working design, and you are automatically prompted when additional options exist. You can preview your output or XSLT 1.0/2.0 code at any time. Stylesheets designed using StyleVision can be based on XML Schemas, DTDs, or database structures, and can support business logic validation, complex tables, tables of contents, conditional formatting, direct template filtering, date control, and much more. In addition, StyleVision integrates fully with Visual Studio and Eclipse, allowing you to access its graphical interface and advanced design capabilities directly from within your favorite IDE. All these features combine to make Altova StyleVision the ultimate tool for single source, multi-channel publishing.

Version 2009 includes all new design for tables; direct template filtering with XPath; Visual Studio & Eclipse integration.
