XML for FMP 7

[LuckyMe]

Hi,

We are trying to convert one of our FMP client-server application to Web application. We are not sure what tool should we use to build the web front end, but one of our considerations is XML and FMP 7 files as a back-end. We know we need to have FMP Server Advance to serve FMP 7 file. We have never done Web Application before, but we willing to learn new technology that not only help us to do the job now but give us a potential grow in the future, some kind of the industry standard tool.

I wonder if someone give us some advise/information such as:

1. XML editor that has debugger cabability

2. a Graphic Visual XML tool.

3. or any thing that we need to know.

Our environment is fast and quick turn around, our customer change their requirements very frequently.

Thanks for any advise.

XML is a file/data format. You would generally use scripting tools such as PHP to request, manage and present the data which has been delivered, from the database, in XML format.

However, general reformating of the XML data (into html pages) can be achieved with style sheets (XSLT).

I use a text editor. However, some other people may use visual tools.

All the best.
