- First of all, it's stored as flat file on the disk in /App_Data/umbraco.config
- Second, you can use a package called XMLDump to investigate and copy parts/all of the tree (does Media nodes too)
- Lastly, you can do ainside a textarea, to dump the XML to the page you're on
Regarding "outside" development - I do that 98% of the time (I prefer TextMate on a Mac) but that requires some discipline, and it'll be *much* easier with the so-called "match templates" approach. I wrote about some of the issues in this article (though, I'd recommend you read them all :-)
Is there any way to test/develop XSLTs outside Umbraco?
Hi,
I have rich set of xslt development and debugging tools. Is there any way to test xslts outside Umbraco?
I am hoping to get the test XML data somehow so I can use them as test data to develop my xslts.
Thank you,
Hi Allan49,
There are several ways to get to the XML:
- First of all, it's stored as flat file on the disk in /App_Data/umbraco.config
- Second, you can use a package called XMLDump to investigate and copy parts/all of the tree (does Media nodes too)
- Lastly, you can do ainside a textarea, to dump the XML to the page you're on
