Inter Shop Markup Language


ISML, an initialism of InterShop Markup Language, is a markup language for web pages. It is provided by Intershop. The Enfinity suite framework, provided by Intershop, uses templates to generate static and dynamic web pages. When the user sends some request regarding some page, the request is sent to a server. In Enfinity suite, pipelines receive those requests and react to them with certain predefined processes. One of those processes is to hand over a requested data to a specific template for generating response page.

To accommodate dynamic content, Intershop developed ISML as an extension to the HTML. Dynamic content is based on information stored in pipeline dictionary and are added to the page at the time the response is actually generated.

Famous quotes containing the words shop and/or language:

    Give me the eye to see a navy in an acorn. What is there of the divine in a load of bricks? What of the divine in a barber’s shop or a privy? Much, all.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    My God! The English language is a form of communication! Conversation isn’t just crossfire where you shoot and get shot at! Where you’ve got to duck for your life and aim to kill! Words aren’t only bombs and bullets—no, they’re little gifts, containing meanings!
    Philip Roth (b. 1933)
