Hello, allow me to repost/syndicate Jesse Warden's blog story titled "XML to UI Examples". Here we go:
Sharon Selden from Macromedia was responding to our increased interest in using XUL, an XML language used to create forms. There are some tag definitions on the net, but it was nice to get documentation and examples from the source. Additionally, she posted some XUL to UI examples, but the list didn't allow attachments, so I'm hosting them for da group. ...however, there were a few of us that had tried to use JSAPI with them, and met with little success in actually having JavaScript 'esque control like you do in HTML pages. I had managed to populate some controls, but the jsfl runs in a scope that is different from your document, so there's really no way to get data back from the XUL form... at least that I found. Muzak posted this link, but I haven't had time to read the whole thing to see if it solves the whole thing. Hopefully I can find my answers in da zip I just uploaded. Regardless, XUL is sooo much frikin' easier than a Flash panel... until you want to populate controls. We'll see.
