In Lotus Domino any view can be expressed as XML using ?readviewentries.
It creates one <viewentries> element which has multiple <viewentry>
elements (one for each of the rows in the view), each <viewentry> element
has multiple <entrydata> elements (one for each column in the view).
Each <viewentry> element has a position attribute to show the position in
the view. This position could be 1,2 etc to show that it occurs without
being categorised or 1.1, 1.2 etc to show that it is the category that is
in position 1 (or is a response to the document at position 1) or indeed at
position 1.1.1, 1.1.2 etc to show that it is in the category or a response
to the document at position 1.1 - don't worry an example follows!!
I have an xsl style sheet which uses a recursive call to named templates so
that i can enclose every viewentry that is a child to the current viewentry
inside some html. - example at bottom.
I would like to do this with a key to improve performance but don't know
how to start. PLEASE HELP!!
