How to display the result of Intermedia text in html

Question

After defining the following statments:
begin
ctx_ddl.create_preference('COMMON_DIR','FILE_DATASTORE');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute('COMMON_DIR','PATH','c:\temp');
ctx_ddl.create_section_group('XML_GROUP','xml_section_group');
ctx_ddl.add_zone_section('XML_GROUP', 'Order', 'Order');
ctx_ddl.add_zone_section('XML_GROUP', 'currencyType', 'currencyType');
create index myindex on xmltable(xml_text)
indextype is ctxsys.context
parameters ('datastore COMMON_DIR section group XML_GROUP');
end;
then I run the following SQL statement:
select id,xmltext from xmltable
where contains(xmltext,'156 within currencyType')>0;
by the way the table xmltable is defined as :
create table xmltable(id number primary key,xmltext CLOB);
Now I want to display the querying result in html ,what should I do???

Answer 1

If the query returns all of the information you require and it is (as the data model would suggest) in XML format, the obvious choice is to use an XSLT Style Sheet to render the XML data to a HTML document.
There is plenty of information on XML and XSLT in the standard Oracle documentation but be warned, whilst XSLT is a reasonably well defined standard, it is a little complex and can take time to get used to. You will find a lot of books available on the subject.
