Isn't that why HTML was so successful in the first place ... because browsers showed it so 'well'. I recently gave a short demo of one of the benefits of separating presentation from content by quickly swapping the display styles on an SGML document in Panorama. In the same way, trying to explain HyTime linking is so much easier when you *show* (at least part of) it in something like Panorama. Theories are fine, but working code is better. > > Up to now for on-line rendition we have: > a) Hybrick (do native rendition of DSSSL FO objects) > b) the SGML/XML Kit that adds on-line rendition with DSSSL for XML/SGML on > IE 5 (not yet on Mozilla, its too unstable, we have to stabilize and > integrate netlib) </reply> Don't forget Doczilla and Talva Document Explorer ....
