Applying a CSS to an XML file

sample.xml

If we create an XML file as

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="sample.css"?><people>
  <person>
    <LastName>Fant</LastName><FirstName>Elly</FirstName>
    <comment>Trunk line stomp</comment>
  </person>
<person>
    <LastName>Lyon</LastName><FirstName>Cee</FirstName>
</person>
</people>

sample.css

We can build a CSS to style the XML file as follows:

people     /* styles for xml definitions  */ 
{ background-color: #ffffff; width: 100%; }
person
{ display: block; color: #FF0000; font-size: 15pt; }
LastName
{ font-size: 12pt; }
FirstName
{ color: #33CC33; }
comment
{display: block; color: #000000; font-size: 10pt; margin-left: 20pt; }

Note: The display:block style forces the next element to be on a newline.

sample.html

Now if we create a container page, where we include an iFrame we can display the xml file

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html>
<head>
	<title>Assessment 1</title>
	<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />
	<style type="text/css" media="all">@import "sample.css";</style>
</head>
<body>
Sample of XML and CSS
<div id="bodyarea">
	<iframe src="sample.xml" width=800 height=200 frameborder=0 scrolling=yes></iframe></div>
</body>
</html>


Example :Click here to run sample.html. The diagram following shows the result in Google's chrome.
