Someone asked why I think Xerces will become the standard way to do CGI.

I recently took a class in XML from Northern Virginia Community College. The instructor seemed very knowledgeable in most areas (other than the DOM). He mentioned the Java XML parser built into the Apache Xerces project as being very advanced.

I visited the Apache Xerces site and it does seem that Xerces is an advanced project. The tie-in with Apache must help a lot, because a lot of us at work do CGI on an Apache server.

I wonder whether mere roll-your-own programming is going to be enough. With the Apache people running a full-blown effort to develop XML tools for Apache it seems to me that soon most non-Perl people doing Apache CGI work would want to use these tools.

That is what I meant.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


Come for the quick hacks, stay for the epiphanies.
