Abstract

As a standard programming model for Web application development, HTML template engines (systems) are used to separate the business logic and data computations from the Web page presentation. In this paper, we present the current problems about template engines in Web application development and propose the solution: construction of an XML-based template engine for developing flexible and extensible Web applications. We explain that the approach supports the demands of users well and could reduce the cost of development. We also discuss the new opportunities brought to the effective browser cache usage, code reuse, data integration, etc.
