In this chapter, we show how Tamino's pass-thru servlet can be used to generate customized HTML pages from XML data stored in Tamino. We give a short introduction to XSLT and discuss its advantages and disadvantages. Using XLink, we show how navigational structures can be modeled and transformed into HTML hyperlinks. Finally, we show how XQuery 4 can be used for prototyping purposes, and discuss the pros and cons of the various approaches to application prototyping.
