 Okay. well i'm trying to store a webpage in xml format. The only reason behind this is because we're developing an online website editor for teachers and only want them to be able to include certain types of objects (ie hyperlinks, images, lists, etc), but don't want them to have to deal with the html source. So, i figured that xml would be a good way to store the information since it seems i can 'easily' choose how each object is to be rendered. So, here's the xml for what i'm trying to make...the html output should be obvious...if anyone can help, or if anyone can think of a better way to do this, any help would be appreciated! thanks,
-Mark
Sample XML:
<webquest>
<text>
Hello, and welcome to my page!
</text>
<image>
<src>/images/image1.jpg</src>
<border>0</border>
</image>
<hyperlink>
<url>http://www.yahoo.com</url>
<text>Yahoo!</text>
</hyperlink>
<hyperlink>
<url>/page2.html</url>
<image>
<src>/images/learn.gif</src>
<border>1</border>
</image>
</hyperlink>
</webquest>
HTML output should read:
<HTML><BODY>
Hello, and welcome to my page!
<image src="/images/image1.jpg" border=0>
<a href="http://www.yahoo.com">Yahoo!</a>
<a href="/page2.html">
<image src="/images/learn.gif" border=1>
</a>
