Hello

=20

I just saw this mail. FourJs does not have any built-in functionality
for this. The easiest way to handle this is to transform the xml into a
flat-file using some external tool (an xslt-processor for instance) and
then load or read the flat file.

Alternatively you can either use an xml processor written in c or write
your own parser. We have written a small 4gl module to read xml in a
sax-like way; but I cannot publish the code for this module here.

If you would be interested in this module you can always mail me in
private; then I could discuss this with the management team.
