I have put online a rough-and-ready version of Conrad's HEART OF
DARKNESS, with an XML 1.0 DTD and markup.  You can get at the document
through the following URL:

  http://home.sprynet.com/sprynet/dmeggins/texts/

You may, of course, simply download the document and parse it on your
local system; however, if you happen to have an active Internet
connection, it's much more interesting (and much more in line with the
XML philosophy) to parse the document directory from its source URL:

  http://home.sprynet.com/sprynet/dmeggins/texts/darkness/darkness.xml

For example, with Ælfred (http://www.microstar.com/XML/), you would
type

  java EventDemo http://home.sprynet.com/sprynet/dmeggins/texts/darkness/darkness.xml

and watch the events roll down your screen.  I have not tried this yet
with other XML parsers like Lark or MSXML.

For a _really_ fun test in the future, I might put different chapters
of the book on different Internet hosts (you could still parse it
through a single top-level URL).  This is where XML can be exciting
for managing distributed information.


All the best,


David
