Re: (OT) XPointer or XLink?

i would go for something like:

<document>
<products>
  <product mid="183">
    <name>Stereo</name>
  </product>
  <product mid="182">
    <name>TV</name>
  </product>
</products>

<manufacturers>
  <manufacturer mid="182">
    <name>Sony</name>
  </manufacturer>

  <manufacturer mid="183">
    <name>SABA</name>
  </manufacturer>
</manufacturers>
</document>
[download]

no xlink or xpointer at all.

Your solution smells very... SQL like. It would be nice if i could ask my XML database (eXist) for something like this (XPath): `//product[name="Stereo"]/manufacturer` [download] or something.	[reply] [d/l]
