Has anyone tackled the problem of general time representation in XML yet? I kind of wondered this before when I was whipping up a quick XML application to create my timesheets for work. I am not at all familiar with the time standards out there, but it would be handy if someone wrote a DTD for time info that we could all reuse. On the more general note...is there a repository for general domain nonspecific DTD's for stuff like times, dates, directory listings, etc? It would be nice if we could have one place for all this, and software for parsing and representing information stored in these formats. I mean, as soon as I find myself creating declarations for stuff like datetime I know someone else must have done it already, and probably have a Java class which can load itself using SAX events. What are the large companies such as Microsoft using for this in stuff like Office 2000? --- Chris Hubick mailto:chris@h... http://www.hubick.com/ xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers.
