Add my vote to XML!
Today I kind-of form my XMLs with cfml, but I parse my attachments with Java
CFXs in Xerces.
How about something like this:
<CFXML SOURCE="<?Xml ... ?>..." OUTPUTVAR="DOMRootVarName">
<CFXML SOURCEVAR="DOMRootVarName" OUTPUT="XMLVarName">
<CFXSL SOURCE="<?Xml ... ?>..." TEMPLATE="something.xsl"
DEST="NewXMLVarName">
It would be nice if source can be inline AND referenced (i.e. filenames, and
URLS) the same for TEMPLATE in the XSL.
Of course you may need to extend the expressions a little, to be able to
support the whole DOM. Like Root.element[3].sub[2] etc.
I hope is worth at least 2 cents, but I hope for 4 cents.
