You guys are awesome - thanks for all the great urls and info! 

I have taken XML classes and read quite a bit on the subject. It seems to me that XML is useful if you're juggling chunks of data, but I don't see a compelling use for it in the Frame-PDF-Online Help world most of us work in. Am I missing something? Are any of you using XML to produce software user guides and online help? If so, how and why? (Or should this be a separate thread?) 

Thanks! 
Karen
