In what format do you have the articles on the database? TXT? You will need to create a PHP software to format these articles to HTML PDF TXT PS
With XML you don't need that, the parser does the hard work for you. What would it happen if you need another format? You would need to develop another program (or modify an existing one) to transform your content to the new format. With XML you just need to add a new XSL. Of course, XML is not the only solution, but IMO is the easiest. Regards -- XPde :: XP-like desktop environment (developed with Kylix ;-) http://www.xpde.com
