Abstract

This paper proposes a toolkit with which a Web site can visualize eXtensible Markup Language (XML) data without using a server-side programming language. Further, the visualization element is provided as a Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) object so that the users of the toolkit can interact with the graphic component. The toolkit is implemented with JavaScript and Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformation (XSLT) and tested on Firefox Web browser. The use of open standard languages and tools makes this toolkit highly flexible, extensible, and independent from server-side development environment.
