Creating the SPS Structure |
The structure of the SPS is defined in its main template. The main template consists of components which may be dynamic (content taken from the XML document) or static (content inserted directly in the SPS). A dynamic component is most commonly the text content of a node or nodes, but may also have a structure in the SPS, as when an element from the XML document is inserted as a dynamic table or a dynamic list. Static components are usually single items, such as a text string or a horizontal line, but some components, such as static tables and static lists, may have a substructure.
The main factors that influence the structure of the SPS are:
| • | The schema sources and what schema trees they make available for use in the design. |
| • | The use of, and interaction between, main template and global templates. |
These factors are discussed in the sub-sections of this section.
