Introduction
This Web site offers a library of resources to assist in managing a Web site using XML. It was designed and developed as a product of the Web Site Management Using XML Testbed, conducted by the Center for Technology in Government in 2005–2006. The library of resources is intended to grow over time and benefit from the contributions of its visitors and users.
This is Release 3 of the Web site, containing sample scripts for integrating relational databases with XML to generate Web pages dynamically. Code samples have been added for Apache Cocoon to complement samples for ASP (VB Script), ASP.NET (C#), PHP, JSP, Java Filter, ColdFusion, and Dreamweaver — covering virtually every Web server environment. The next release will redesign this site as a wiki to promote further documentation and collaboration.
