I never did anything with xml before; so can you give me a short hint on how to convert these .xml files into anything different (html/txt)? xml seems to be like a mixture of html and latex to me ... > Dave (sighing as he watches sales of the book plummet) I own the book - just only one copy. It's the one, which looks a bit like bundled newpapers at the moment. Perhaps it would have been better to hardcover it using hard plastic or steel. The book is really the greatest book on programming i ever read! My wife didn't understand, that I read this programming book with the same fun as she did with crime novels (hope, that's the correct english term for these books). Thanks a lot for the effort you spent to write it! Regards, Martin. -- The early bird catches the worm. If you want something else for breakfast, get up later.
