SharePoint Consuming Mashups using standard XML Web Part

Posted 01/20/2010 - 18:20 by MiMi Levine

With a fairly basic knowledge of XSL, XPath and XSL Stylesheets, the SharePoint XML Web Part can provide a front-end for Presto Mashups.

Are you putting Excel in the cloud, when you say repository? Where is this Repository? Google Docs, SharePoint?

Yes, we have a .NET API as well. And we are just about to release some examples of Presto Mashups in Sharepoint. Keep an eye on http://www.jackbe.com/enterprise-mashup/

Are you using .NET FRAMEWORK 3.5 with AJAX?

Posted 12/30/2009 - 10:42 by Blythe
