The only real advantage to using XML with JSP is that you could define
your own tags, and then format the tags in HTML using an XML
stylesheet.
But if you are not using XML formatting tools already, and do not have
another reason to use XML, there is probably no advantage fo ryour.
In the future, there may be more support for XML in Web browsers, and
then things will be different.
Unless you have another place o use the XML, outside of the JSPs, then
you probably want to continue using HTML for now.

Dear All,
I am reposting it since i didn't get any feed back. Please help me out
Gurus.
I have a doubt which is not cleared for long time. I am sorry if this
is very basic question.
In JSP applications, Before this XML was introduced we were doing the
data
Transformation from JSP to Backend via Bean using JDBC.
1. What is the advantage of using XML?
Now people say that XML can be used for Data Transformation. If thats
the case, pls tell me whether i am correct.
1. Collect the Data from Form.
2. Form the XML string with the Data.
3. Parse XML before storing in to DB.
4. After parsing , insert into DB.
For Retrieval,
1. Retrieve the data from DB.
2. Form XML String
3. Display the data using XSL.
4. Thats XML-XSL-HTML.
Is this is the step followed? If yes what makes the Diff with the old
one. if no which is the right way and what is the Advantage.
Please give me the Feed Back for this Gurus.
Thanx in Advance.
Ganesh
