XML News from Tuesday, December 7, 2004

In anticipation of the upcoming release of the XInclude recommendation, I've posted a brief introduction to XInclude on The Cafes. This is an updated version of an article I've published in a couple of other venues over the last few years.

By the way, if you're using Internet Explorer and have had problems with the comment form on the Cafes, that has now been at least partially fixed. It still looks ugly, but at least it doesn't slide under the sidebar any more. The trick was setting width: 100%; on the form element.


The W3C has released version 8.7 of Amaya, their open source testbed web browser and authoring tool for Solaris, Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X that supports HTML 4.01, XHTML 1.0, XHTML Basic, XHTML 1.1, HTTP 1.1, MathML 2.0, SVG, and much of CSS 2. Besides bug fixes, there are a few new features in this release including non-breaking space and tabs are shown in the source view as ~ and », and menu items to generate section numbers and tables of contents.
