The following is a step-by-step tutorial that will show you how to use the CMSViewer control to display a specific news item (CMS.News document) using an XSLT transformation:

 

1. Create a new Web form somewhere in your website installation directory.

 

2. Switch to its Design tab, drag and drop a CMSViewer control from the toolbox onto the form and set its following properties:

 

ClassNames: CMS.News

Path: /News/New-Consulting-Services

TransformationName: cms.news.default_xslt

 

This tells the control which document types to read, specifies the Path to the news document and assigns the transformation that should be used.

 

 

InfoBox_Exclamation

 

Please note

 

The document types entered into the ClassNames property must be identical (it is case sensitivite), to the value of the match property of the <xsl:template> element of the specified xslt transformation.

 

 

3. Switch to the Source tab. The code of the CMSViewer control should look like this:

 

<cms:CMSViewer ID="CMSViewer1" runat="server" ClassNames="CMS.News"

Path="/News/New-Consulting-Services" TransformationName="cms.news.default_xslt" />

 

4. Save the changes to the web form. Now right-click it in the Solution explorer and select View in Browser. The resulting page should look like this:
