xml2html project for Realbasic

Realbasic, while having great database and interface graphic design does not offer a lot of tools with the title "Report printer". However it does supply some useful tools to output your report data (listboxes, database queries, arrays and dictionaries for example) to xml.

Then what do you do? Well, by building an xsl text file to transform it to HTML you can then use the built-in html viewer to preview the report and save it as an html file for printing or export to PDF. With a little bit of CSS styling this can actually look pretty good. I made a sample project to show how this can work. It is available in the Download section of the website and is titled
xml2html example.  Precompiled binaries for Windows and MacOSX are included.
