116 CHAPTER 4 CLIENT-SIDE XML The aim (Medical web site)
116 CHAPTER 4 CLIENT-SIDE XML The aim of the project is to provide online content for students and teachers through learning objects. A high proportion of the learning objects available use Flash and XML for portability and platform independence. You can find examples of learning objects at http:// www.thelearningfederation.edu.au/tlf2/showMe.asp?nodeID=242#groups. Figure 4-10 shows one learning object. Figure 4-10. A Flash movie displaying XML content Now that I ve covered the range of client-side options available for working with XML data, let s examine when client-side processing is appropriate. Choosing Between Client and Server It s important to decide whether an XML application should use client-side XML, server-side XML, or some combination of the two types of processing. So far, you ve seen several clients that can work with XML content. In Chapters 5 to 10, you ll look at client-side communication in more detail. Chapters 11 to 13 will examine server-side applications. In this section, I ll cover different approaches for client-side and server-side interactions in XML applications.
