Making a record

Wrapping an SQL query resource with a <http://waterken.com/sql/record/Record> allows the query return to be treated as an independent resource. Consequently, doing a GET on the resource will automatically execute the SQL query and return the results.

weekly sales Record

In your xdb folder, open the weekly sales <Record> <7dkavsvtr2jbj7v2d7o35es2zm.xml>. In the statement field, the <Record> links to the SQL query resource that it uses. This link is the capability URI of the SQL query resource. You should use a relative URI to refer to the SQL query resource. Just enter the GUID portion of the URI, in this case: "lx2b53xaa5xnsm5mp46unp7h7m".

You are looking at the map returned by the weekly sales query. The HTML page is created by a default XSLT stylesheet. The default rendering is useful for development and testing, but you probably want to create a custom rendering for an actual application.

The next page covers setting up a custom XSLT stylesheet to render the weekly sales map.
