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.
