Could this be because you're thinking of a demo on a standalone PC rather than one executed over a network? How about any app that works between tens or hundreds of partnered companies over the Net? Say a supply chain management "system", where no single vendor/supplier has the same software as anybody else - it could all be proprietary - but they all talk XML (and agree on DTDs, or just specific tags & semantics, etc..). The true value of XML, IMHO, is in its potential to become ubiquitous. MB -- Mark Baker, Personal Apps Lead Sun Microsystems Inc.
