XML + php website

Recommended Posts

I have just started to experiment more with XML + PHP combined and I'm going to make a simple website which uses xml to store page content information and php to controle site navigation/pages/and were content is placed. Has this been done or are their any examples of this on the net?

This is actually the future of the internet. If everything is based off XML, it will make it much easier for sites to interact with other sites, and turn the internet into more of a large database, rather than millions of individual sites.

 

So now is a good time to be spending time learning how to do this.

 

For an example of using XML to create webpages, download a mod pack from phpbb.com. Open the mod pack file, and then open the XML file in your browser. They are not using any HTML or CSS, they use XML and XSLT.

 

edit: Actually they may be using CSS - I have never actually opened up the XSLT file and looked inside.

Thats kinda sweet hey, ill look into that. Lately I have been searching the web and particularly newly developed gaming sites are using xml for displaying content which i thought was kinda cool.

 

Actually I develop all my work in wordpress / joomla! hehe...
