Hi everyone, I am doing some research/evaluation on Web forms (old-fashioned and 2.0) being a data schema language, and would appreciate any insights/pointers on this. WF2 spec has some good information on this, especially section 5.4, but I guess I want more information and/or discussion on this topic. The premise I am currently working under can be outlined as follows: * Form elements represent structure of data that is expected by the server. * Therefore, form markup is in effect a very primitive data schema language. * With the addition of validation and repetition in WF2, this schema language is becoming more refined/complete. * It would be interesting to explore what possibilities this holds on the way data schema is represented on the Web and the way this may impact existing schema languages. Kind regards, :DG<
