Dear Cocoon User Group:
I've spent about the last six months building a
large complex cocoon based dynamic web site.
Yes, the separation of content, logic, and presentation
is great. However, the more I think about it, the hard
it seems to define exactly should be in the presentation layer.
Certainly, color scheme, font type, encapsulation
of all HTML, etc... is in the presentation layer.
However, what about layout? If one moves layout into
the presentation layer, then many page specific
templates (i.e. <xsl:template match="page-xxxx">)
(or equivalent) are needed in the presentation layer.
This doesn't seem right.
On the other hand, if layout is specified in the logic
layer, then this makes it more difficult to support
a different display technology such as WAP, where
pages need to be broken up into the finer granularity
of cards.
Hmm.
So, "What is Your Presentation Layer?"
