Thank you for the email.

.... I.... If they are using xslt, than it's a large chance, that they are
using xQuery....

I just want xqib revive!

Look at it:

Xqib:

 <!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>XQIB: Sample
page</title> <meta charset="UTF-8"/>


 </head> <body> <h1>Onclick Event</h1>
<input id="myButton" type="button" value="Click me"/>
 </body> </html>
----------------------------
<!DOCTYPE html> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head>
<title>XQIB: Sample page</title> <meta charset="UTF-8"/>


 </head> <body> <h1>Event Location</h1>
 Click on one of the following words:
<div id="paragraph1">Foo</div><div id="paragraph2">Bar</div>
</body> </html>
For more example, please visit this link: http://www.xqib.org/js/
LOOK AT IT!

Wouldn't this be a great feature for xml native database to have....

PLEASE CAN YOU EMAIL YOUR NAME AND MESSAGE IF YOU AGREE!  THAN I CAN SHOW IT
TO BASEX EXIST AND OTHER XML NATIVE DATABASE.

They can't ignore all of us. We can demand it!

Just think of it! You can use the same language to send a large fragment
document to the browser, than let it be hold their in memory, and when a query
is require, you can use xQuery in the browser to query it, avoiding making a
trip to the browser....

Don't you see the benefit of having this in the browser through a XML native
database....

If you do, please, put your email, name, and a message for this. I will gladly
post/send it to all xml native database that I can reach.

XQIB!!!!!!
