x-port's FormsPlayer beta for IE 6 is now based on the XForms
1.0 Candidate Recommendation. The new version can be downloaded
from the FormsPlayer site:

	http://www.FormsPlayer.com/

As well as using tags from the XForms 1.0 CR, there are quite
a few new features, many of which are illustrated with updated
samples. Some of these will make building internet applications
much easier:

- Saving and loading to local files is fully working. This
allows forms to be completed offline, and then submitted at
a later date. There is a sample that shows this, as well as
demonstrating one technique for producing a wizard.

- Using @appearance="compact" with xf:select1 and
xf:select causes the processor to use a tree view
control to render the items. This is very useful when
choices are nested, since it helps guide the user in
their selection.

- The data type now influences rendering of the user
interface. At the moment this is confined to dates, but
more will be added.

- A submission method of 'text-xml-post' has been added so
that we can submit "text/xml" documents, which is needed for
SOAP 1.1 applications. (SOAP 1.2 uses "application/xml+soap".)

- COM interfaces have been added to the model element as
per section 7.2, so allowing script access to the instance data
from IE. A sample illustrates this.

Mark
