Re:Nice technology, but.. (Score 1)

You need to understand that XForms is not a client only technology. J2EE or .NET application server runtimes can take XFORM documents and render them using HTML 4.0, CSS/JavaScript. The key is that the FORM designers can use simple tags to create rich self validating forms that can then drive Web Services. This will remove the need for JSP/Servelts or ASP.NET ASPX files. So please get over "The browser doesnt support it". Just think if you are a large organisation will a lot of self maintence service forms that customers need to fill in, I would implement the solution using XFORMS with WebServices driving my business functions. It would remove weeks/months of development effort. Let alone all the testing. This stuff is as exciting as Java Server Faces for J2EE world.
