Subject: RE: Scripting, was "RE:CSS and XSL?" From: "Vun Kannon, David" <dvunkannon@xxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 13 Jun 1999 12:20:52 -0400 |
In his seminars, Chris Date says that the SQL community now believes that trying to make SQL a "data sublanguage" that was not a complete language in itself was a mistake. I believe this does have implications for designers of other niche languages, such as transformation sublanguages. If we accept this wisdom, our concern should be that all niche languages on the web use the same scripting component, i.e. VRMLscript=XSLscript=ECMAscript.
