I can imagine using one of these either directly, or more likely, basing an XML language on a model that one of these languages have developed. For example, a piece of XML that uses the Java-style interaction model could look like: <UI> <BasicWidget id="1" x="100" y="100" height="50" width="50" type="TextEntryField"> <KeyPressListener name="2"> <KeyPressListener name="3"> <KeyPressListener name="4"> </BasicWidget> etc... - Robb xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers.
