Here is a very simple interface for an early implementation of XPointer. This work is part of the XSLT++ project, which is being done by Claudio Tasso for his master thesis in Computer Science at the University of Bologna, under the supervision of Fabio Vitali. This program is released as free softw

Versa is a language for addressing and querying an RDF model, allowing traversal of arcs, processing of node contents, and general expression evaluation. Uche Ogbuji recently announced updates to both the Versa draft specification and Versa-by-example tutorial.

by Kurt Cagle – A visual presentation's ancillary documentation is often as important as its content. In this first of a two-part series, you'll learn how to use XML, SVG, and XSLT to organize presentations, separate logical organization from presentation and implementation layers, and creat

By Dan Neel – Although the adoption of Web services is still in its infancy, representatives from leading IT vendors at the Intel Developer Forum (IDF) discussed the technical challenges that increased distributed computing will pose.Problems like a lack of existing best practices for deploy

by A. Russell Jones – You don't usually expect syntax to have a major impact on performance, but sometimes syntax does matter. See how to use a select statement in XSLT syntax to make stylesheet execution more efficient.

By Philip Quinn – I find navigating XML using the XMLDOM object to be hell. Some people seem to get the hang of it, but I don't. However, I find navigating a RecordSet to be much easier. This article will detail how to import an XML file into a RecordSet and to navigate it.

by J. David Eisenberg – The Batik viewer application uses the JSVGCanvas component, which is a Java class that accepts SVG as input and displays it on screen. In this article, we'll use two of the other Batik components, SVGGraphics2D, and the Batik transcoders. The SVGGraphics2D class is the in

by Fabio Arciniegas A. – While quantitative XML data is everywhere, a less common thing to find is examples of effective ways to display such information. Most resources will merely show you how to use XSLT to convert XML data to HTML, which is often not nearly enough when you need to explain comple

Andrew Pinder, the eEnvoy, is due to set out a consultation paper for the further development of the UK's eGovernment Interoperability Framework (eGIF). It is expected that this paper will recommend the use of SOAP and UDDI standards for the provision of web service and, in so doing, will provid
