I'm not entirely sure what you're asking, but I'll throw out a couple of thoughts. If you just want to mess with the xml and see what it looks like there is the simulator. I'm pretty sure you know about that and how it works and you want a working web page that sends requests to systemlink. What I've done is to write java classes that translate between html form submissions and systemlink xml. A servlet engine submits those requests to the System I and then converts the resulting xml back to html using an xslt transform. If you wanted to just mess around with the possibilities, I think all major browsers have an xslt parser built in. You can create the xslt transform as a local file, and then refer to that in your xml in order to get the browser to do the transformation the way you want it to. This would probably entail grabbing the xml manually and modifying it to refer to your xslt sheet as sort of a proof of concept tool.

Let me know if this prompts any ideas, maybe I can be a little more helpful if you have some idea about what technologies you are thinking of using.
