[css-d] Styling an XML table (plus a question)

2011-03-13 Thread Gabriele Romanato
The great majority of web developers don't use XML. Actually, they despise it. That's why XHTML 1.1 has failed, together with SMIL, SVG and other SGML-based languages. Everybody loves HTML. So why don't we turn an XML tabular structure into an HTML table using CSS to present it? http://
