If it were, I'd be very surprised and disappointed. Disk space is cheap, and parsers are free, so it's probably far more economical to ask the c++ programmers to actually spit out proper XML than this bastardization of it. It will only help them in the end. -- Tom Bradford --- The dbXML Project --- http://www.dbxml.org/ We store your XML data a hell of a lot better than /dev/null --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
