Link Extractor Example 1 Link Extractor Example 2 Displays all HTTP-references of a document in a handy table. Search-Replace^[1] >> XQuery

Large Form Example^[2] Splits a large input form into smaller ones. Foxy collects all parameters and posts them to a predefined target (i.e., a test target, in this case) after you have succesfully "finished" the last "small form". LayoutPage

(dynamic page splitting)

www.gmx.net^[4] Extracts some important parts (e.g. menus, login forms...) of a document, splits them into smaller pieces and shows the first one (including a small navigation menu). XSL >> LayoutPage

Note:

Before any XSL- or XQuery-transformation can be applied, the (HTML-)input-content must be converted (by an "HTML-tidier" - JTidy in our case) to X(HT)ML.

All documents transformed by LayoutPage accept following paramters:

ui (for selecting groups, allowed values: -1(all), 0(none), 1, 2..)
sg (for selecting subgroups, allowed values: -1(all), 0(none), 1, 2..)
reset (any value allowed, same as ui=-1 & sg=-1)

¹: If a document contains entities (&..;), they have to be removed before applying an XQuery-transformation (Saxon's XQuery engine does not like some entities).
We do this by a simple (regular-expression-) text-replacement (i.e. a FOXY replacement-rule).

²: This web page does already contain special FOXY-group and -subgroup-tags, needed for the page splitting process.
In most cases these tags have to be added dynamically (usually by either XSL- or XQuery-transformations, see also [3]).

³: This web page does not contain FOXY-group and -subgroup-tags.
During the connection process, these tags (<foxy:group>, <foxy:subgroup>) are added dynamically by an XSL stylesheet (at the proxy) to provide page splitting functionality.

⁴: These pages are user-agent-sensitive.
If the client is a WAP-browser, some (important) parts of the source-document will be extracted and converted to WML-code.
Used techniques:
Search-Replace (remove entities),
XQuery (to create a proper "WML-structure"),
XSL (further transformation of HTML- to WML-content (i.e. input forms and links))
