Re: ANN: PicoForms XForms plug-in for Internet Explorer

Hi Mark,

Because you're new :-)

Note that you can now go onto the group's public wiki and add this 
announcement to the PicoForms item in the Implementation list.

And the rule of thumb the working group has adopted is that if you make a 
new release, then it is morally and ethically acceptable to float your 
implementation to the top of the list.  Kind of like the fact that it is 
morally and ethically acceptable to figure out how to pay the least amount 
of taxes within the bounds of the law (I believe there is an actual US 
court ruling that includes language to this effect).

Cheers,
John M. Boyer, Ph.D.

ANN: PicoForms XForms plug-in for Internet Explorer







PicoForms is pleased to announce today its plan to release a version of 
its XForms engine as a plug-in for Microsoft Internet Explorer 
(compatible with IE versions 6 and 7). With this release PicoForms will 
be able to offer its customers a comprehensive range of deployment 
options for their XForms based applications, from mobile phones and 
PDAs to the desktop browser. PicoForms' plug-in reuses the same 
algorithms as its other products, so application logic is executed 
consistently whatever platforms your applications are deployed to. The 
plug-in has no dependencies on any third party components and has 
excellent support for standards such as XPath 1.0 and XML Schema 1.0, 
that XForms is directly dependant upon. So, if you need to deploy 
sophisticated, data-driven applications on Internet Explorer, or 
anywhere else, talk to PicoForms.
