I have created a "connector" with a very nice tool called import.io which allows me to do a search inquiry by a other website and gets me an resultlist. I followed an other article by stackoverflow.com to do this:
basic import.io html search
This works well. But my question now:
How i style my HTML(Resultlist) with CSS like on this site?
Thanks
To get the data from your API into a web page you need to access the API via a programming language or script. Once you have the API return the Data as Json, you could try something like http://json2html.com/ to convert the Data into HTML and write that to your page.
Alternatively you could download the data as CSV, open it in excel and wrap html tags around the data and copy paste that into your website. its not idea, but at least you can get the data online.

I am trying to create a webpage or page element that will read and display the data from an external XML data feed. I can't seem to find documentation on their site that will help and I am very new to this.
This is the XML url generated: https://spacedout.ampsuite.com/xml/releases?cid=2&s_date=2018-01-01&e_date=2019-01-11&order=release_date&dir=desc&limit=10
And this is an example of how I would like it displayed: https://client.ampsuite.com/
Pretty much just the section under "featured releases" that lists current music releases.
You can use wixCode backend function in order to do that. All you need is to use the wix-fetch API to get the data, then you can parse the XML using xml-js (which is a node module you can install in the backend).
In your client code you'll need to call your backend function and then inject the results to something like a repeater / table element on your UI.
A little startup I am doing work for is searching for a JavaScript Org Chart, and we believe we'd like to use "GetOrgChart" from getorgchart.com.
We definitely have a working back-end already that provides data to the front-end via RESTful services and provides JSON data.
We know the GetOrgChart can be loaded with data from various sources, and in this case we'd like to know what format the JSON has to be in?
Are there any examples out there of how the JSON should look like?
We'd definitely like to download and register this product, but that is one of the questions we'd like to get answered.
Thanks!
On their demos page, you can click the 'Get HTML Code' link (upper right, below the site header) which opens the javascript used to render the demo, including the format of the data.
How best i can store a word doc in sql server 2008 and retrieving in HTML format to show it in a JSP FILE
the html file should not loose the Rich text format and images.

Although not quite raw HTML output, this can be done using the Google Docs viewer in an embedded iframe and can be accomplished in two steps. You will need to first create a Servlet or JAX-RS which will provide the document as a resource. There are many examples on how to do this, but you might want to start here. Then you can write your JSP with a simple iframe using the Google Doc's viewer URI which references your resource URI:
<iframe src=""http://docs.google.com/gview?embedded=true&url=http://your.document/resource"></iframe>
The end result is quite useful as it contains many standard Google Docs features. Here is also a sample of what the iframe will display.
im making an iOS app for my school and i want that this app shows the same content that the webpage but im not the web admin, i want to know if its possible to generate a JSON or a xml file from the webpage or html code so i can get all that info automatically or I will have to write the JSON manually,i was thinking in some kind of RSS feed but the webpage doesn't have this function thanks!!!
PS: I don't want to ask for the permissions from the web to my school because its a project proposal.
Short answer no. The server has to provide the JSON or XML.
Long answer yes, but then you'd would have to parse the html. Or try look for a lib that does it for you. Something like this.
I have created a rrdcgi script to display information about the system performance with graphs. Now I would like to add an option for the users to create PDF on the fly with the details on current page (images and information) and header and footer. I also want the generated PDF files to be saved in some location so that that can be easily accessed next time. Is this possible to do with rrdcgi or any Perl code would be really appreciated.
I need this options
You need to consider what you want to put in the PDF: Do you want an exact replica of the web page the user is viewing (too hard to be close to impossible without having the user's browser installed on your side and using its print output) or do you want the same information in a roughly similar layout?
An important issue is how you are generating the HTML: I did something similar once to generate PDF receipts for experiment participants (now, I just output HTML with print styles).
The HTML is generated using HTML::Template although Template.pm would be just as fine.
It is then trivial to write another template, one that generates a LATEX document which can be processed using pdflatex. If you save the data the time the snapshot is requested, you can add the snapshot to a queue that generates documents asynchronously so that requests do not tie up the web server.
Update: Looking at rrdcgi, I now realize that it already does use a template. That is perfect: Instead of putting HTML in the template, put LATEX code in the template and run rrdcgi with the --filter option to create a LATEX source file which you can run through pdflatex. I guess the problem to solve there is to be able to use the exact same data that was used to generate the page the user is looking at.
If it is not possible to re-run rrdcgi with the exact same data, consider adding some JavaScript that submits the HTML source of the page the user is reviewing (or some JSON representation thereof) to a CGI script that parses the HTML and outputs LATEX. Writing clean HTML in the original template and judicious use of class and id attributes would help there.
I do not have time to test any of these ideas right now, but I will take a look again within the next couple of days.
Is it worth the effort?
Why don't you add a FAQ explaining how to setup a PDF-printer on Windows/MAC/Linux and provide a 'clean' page that can then be printed?
Since you apparently have to create the PDF,
take a look at this (what-is-the-best-perl-module-to-use-for-creating-a-pdf-from-scratch) post here on SO.
There is also this post, that could combine the 'clean' HTML page and a server-side print.
Regarding the LaTeX route, if you have rrdcgi generate graphs in pdf format, pdflatex will be able to integrate them directly into the document, producing super quality pdf with graphs ... very slick. Sorry, no code.
