Yes, that is how we are using cocoon with our web application. each "page" that the system generates is an XML document of our own home-grown schema/dtd. we did model our form controls after the current Xforms WD from the w3c. we then use cocoon to transform that into whatever output we need, be it pdf, html, wap, etc. -pete -- peter royal -> [EMAIL PROTECTED] managing partners, inc. -> http://www.managingpartners.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. <http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faqs.html> To unsubscribe, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
