Kurt, just to note some progress on the namespaces issue,
www.xmlhack.com
has a submission on "Object Identifiers (OID) draft for unique URNs",
which
you can read here:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-mealling-oid-urn-00.txt I
have
read the introduction (I just found it), and it may help or hinder the
progress so far. I am not sure if this is the solution to the
namespace/uri
problem or not, but I haven't read it all yet.
Interesting stuff, looks good!

Subject: [XPL] About XPipes
About XML Pipes
I recently wrote a case study for Wrox in which I started building
an XSLT
framework called XPipes. It is intended as a framework for developing
web
output quickly, although it incorporates a lot of what I've mentioned
in
previous posts -- the double pass XSLT processing, the conversion of
simple
tag/attribute elements into object requests, the definition of more
sophisticated scripts. It's still not simple enough, principally
because of
namespace limitations, but it's getting there.
For example, the following is a working XPipes page:
<!-- sampleDoc.xml -->
<xp:document xmlns:xp="http://www.vbxml.com/xp">
<param name="title">My Document</param>
<param name="author">Kurt Cagle</param>
<param name="email">cagle@o...</param>
<param name="user"/>
<xp:script name="string"
namespace="http://www.vbxml.com/string"/>
<xp:body onclick="alert('This is a test!')">
<h1><out>$title</out></h1>
<h2><link href="mailto:
{$email}"><out>$author</out></link</h2>

I like this method for output, it looks so intuitive to me, as far
as XML
gets.
<var name="sample_text"><p>Hello, #user, this is a sample
of your
web page.</p></var>
<out>string:replace_text($sample_text,'#user',$user)</out>
</xp:body>
</xp:document>
If you then pass the following URL:
http://localhost/xpserver.asp?source=sampleDoc&title=A New
Page&user=John
Doe
then the XP page, when doubly parsed will generate as output:
<html>
<head>
<title>A New Page</title>
</head>
<body onclick="alert('This is a test!')">
<h1>A New Page</h1>
<h2><a href="mailto:cagle@o...">Kurt Cagle</h2>
<p>Hello, John Doe, this is a sample of your web page.</p>
</body>
</html>
It gets more complex than this -- I have tables, forms, and treeview
controls that all work within this paradigm as well -- but you get the
general idea.
