Adopting XML: Slide 57

Adopting XML: Tomorrow's Web

Browsers

Jumbo
- Demonstrates interesting new functionality not possible with HTML.
- Edits as well as browses.
- Extremely counter-intuitive and hard to use
Fujitsu HyBrick
- Looks like a browser!
- Lays out simple documents straightforwardly.
- All menu text, help text, et cetera, in Japanese.
- Can't layout any of the documents from the Jumbo or SMIL demos
Microsoft IE 5
- Intended for real users to really use.
- Renders all XML into HTML in order to lay it out, so can't do anything which couldn't be done with HTML.

SGML Browsers may also work.
