One of the following:
|
value |
(exp) Inline – A boolean that specifies whether the XML generated for the XML Web DataWindow is generated inline to the XSLT transformation script. Values are:
(exp) PublishPath – A string that specifies the physical path of the Web site folder to which PowerBuilder publishes the generated XML document that contains the XML Web DataWindow content. (exp) ResourceBase – A string that specifies the URL of the generated XML document that contains the XML Web DataWindow content. |
The XML published on the Internet in your XML Web DataWindow could contain sensitive data, and this data might be exposed to Internet users when published to a separate document. For increased security, if the Inline property to set to true, the XML is generated “inline” to the XSLT transformation script in the page that renders the control. If only authenticated users have access to this script, the security of the XML is ensured. Setting this property should have no adverse side effects on the caching efficiency of the control.
The PublishPath folder must correspond to the URL specified in the ResourceBase property. At runtime, after PowerBuilder generates XML content to the PublishPath folder, client-side JavaScript in a generated page downloads it using a reference to the ResourceBase property. The JavaScript transforms the XML content to XHTML using the generated XSLT style sheet.
On the Web Generation tab in the Properties view for the DataWindow object, select XML from the Format to Configure list and select the options you require.
