> http://cocoon.apache.org/2.0/ The above link has good info. As someone totally unfamiliar with Cocoon, I like the way it talks about some applications of Cocoon concretely. This is what I want to do with Cocoon, plus some other stuff :) First, I need to get some data: "93. Use Cocoon to Create a Well-Formed View of a Web Page, Then Scrape It for Data" <http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/xmlhks/toc.html> Oreilly has some hacks available as PDF downloads, just not this one. Anyhow, a very cool book, I learned from that than I did from anything purporting to teach XML. I suppose that's because when I read about how XML should be formatted this way or that, I yawn. When I see something like the above then the light bulb goes on and I get interested. (I just skimmed it at the book store.) First I have to make room on my hard drive and install Cocoon, though. I can't find reference as to how big Cocoon is once installed, although I do know that it runs as a servlet. I don't think it'll be that big, but I'd like to know. I've done some stuff with JTidy, but I now realize that I'm just following in others footsteps. I don't know that I'm glad that Cocoon can save me hassle, or dissapointed because I wanted to do it all myself. Kinda bittersweet ;) -Thufir --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
