In

> PIA framework, each application consists of two parts:
>
> 1.. A collection of task-specific XML pages which contain
> active-processing tags (<if>, <include>, <repeat>,, etc); These look
very
> much like HTML pages.
> 2.. A core software layer (including a dynamic XML processor) that
is
> shared by all applications
> The goal is to make active pages which are both easier to customize
and
> more
> powerful than ordinary web pages.
