haha i just got a patch for sablotron
its parser wasnt working on the x3d xml stuff remember?
i havent been able to get it to work but he just resent the patch cuz
it had some extra line feeds in it or something!
he also stated that the next release should make it so sablotron will use the
real expat libs!
instead of the ones off of their site!
if you want it ill send
i like axkit but our company is not about to be migrating to it right now,
our graphic designers seems to like the html::template stuff more
i think its because the xml is a lil heady for the designers!
and us programmers would have to massage all their work into place if we moved
to an xml
based deliver syustem
the other thing is how different parsers and engines can parse
the xml files differently or incorrectly
expat sax or w.h.y all seem to work differently
once the xml movement settles down into a stable realm of cross conformance
and compatibility i think xml will take off like gang busters!
sort of how java was slow in the begining and then it exploded
what i dont really want to see is what happened to the vrml/web3d movement
where non conformance to the standard actually
set back the movement
no company could afford to make a browser
lots went bankrupt
and those that did release we non conforming non compliant
no one was 'watchdogging' these issues
and what happened is designers/programmers would have to take into account all
these design
issues for each plugin!! and at that time there were more vrml plugins than
web browsers!!
very frustrating
in this case the open source movement has been saving vrml
with freewrl and openvrml
allright back to the grind
