Hello,
Kurt Cagle (author of the Graphical Web) has written
an article titled "How 'Widgety' should SVG Get?" that
explores how SVG, XBL and XUL relate and differ.
Kurt writes:
When talking about XML technologies, I've often
differentiated between foundational schemas - ones
that effectively define the toolkits that people use
to make the web - and application schemas (the
languages that use these primitives to build something
useful). SVG is a foundational schema, perhaps even
more so than XHTML is. In theory, you could replace
XHTML with SVG (though it would entail a huge amount
of SVG to do it), you couldn't replaces SVG with
XHTML, however. XUL isn't foundational, though it
isn't quite at the application level, either - it
falls somewhere in between. Again, however, it is
possible to create XUL with SVG (not necessarily
practical, but possible) while the opposite isn't
true.
