I still can't reconcile myself to the idea that Javascript is now called ECMAscript (and I won't change!) - it seems to me it should be called Javascript, as it always was, and run by the W3C. Even if ECMA runs it, it should still be called Javascript. Anyway. D'Arcy Norman picks up this nice link to E4X - ECMAscript (Javascript) for XML. Some nice work in there - I like the way they look at the semantics of the thing 9which tells us what content you should get) rather than just raw syntax. And the mechanism for referring to a specific XML document element value is elegant. PDF link from an HTML page.
