so you know: that is the very small tip of a very large php/xml/xsl iceberg,
which I am building at this very moment. have a look at
http://www.binarycloud.com

that was a test, to make sure I was sane for choosing xsl. I was :)

the idea is to generate standard form xml on the fly from php based on
business rules, and send it all to this one (ha ahahahahahah! one!) xsl for
formatting.

oh god, more reading...
just a moment...

ah got it, a form dtd. with other poof on top.

this is a good idea, glad someone's doing it. if they would publish
something, I'd comply with it.

> Any thoughts on XForms or other alternatives would be interesting to hear.

We came up with the idea of a standard form xml a while ago, I didn't know
the w3c was doing the same thing! :)

So, uh, I thought/think it was/is a good idea!

In the interim, I might very well comply with FML...
