hi all,

im writing a cms soon in php with a mysql database and possibly the use of xml files to store text content..

for my webforms i was contemplating the use of xforms.., not sure about browser support though.. do all the major browsers support this? Also does PHP link up well with xforms?

TIA
Jonny

I don't think any current widely used browser supports XForms natively at the moment.

edit: If others know better, please prove me wrong! I used to wonder when they might start being a useful technology too.

yeah i had a bit of a look into it and it definitely seems the way to go.. Build in form validation is very handy.

Browser issues just are putting me off.. Will have to stick to the usual forms for the meantime.

Cheers
