Re: about xml

Freedom. You can create your own markup for your own purposes. HTML is a stylistic device and nothing else. Although XML can be used a as a stylistic device as well, it's main pruspose is functional. You can have a series of tagsthat in a certain context, will make a call to the database, get all the data and if necessary will pump it all into old HTML interface for old browsers compatibility. And XML comes in combination with a hell of a lot of other tools, discussing which is well beyond the scope of this email. I can go on and on and on, but I recon you can get some info on your own. Give it a few month or a year and most of the stuff will be done with XML. cheers, d.
