XNGR XML Browser

The XNGR XML Browser framework, visualizes elements in a XML document. The user can browse through and manage the visible elements in the document with external services, or she can make changes to the content of the XML document with the built-in editor.

Review: XML with XNGR - Mark Gibbs, Network World, 14/10/02

The Explorer can be used to browse and manage XML Documents as well as Elements. It stores and categorises XML Documents and allows for links to Documents on the 'local file system' and 'remote' Documents on the Internet. Elements that are supported by a Service can be browsed and can open the associated Service.

A Service can be associated with an Element-Type and makes elements of this type visible and accessible in the Explorer window. The Service can also be used to open the Element and to perform Actions on the Element.

For instance a SOAP Service could be added which associates itself with the SOAP Envelope element. After adding the Service, all the SOAP documents in the Explorer window show an envelope icon for the SOAP Envelope element. The user can now open the Service simply through the Envelope in the Explorer.

The Services API has been kept as simple and effective as possible and the examples have been chosen so they can be used as a starting point for any new service.
