- I am in the process of writing DTD's for forms, eg. tax forms, application
- forms, etc. I think SGML is ideal for representing forms as form in SGML
- will be more structured, and can be better queried. However, there are some
- interesting questions that arise.
-
- For example, when one designs several forms, should each form have a
- separate DTD, or should you have one general DTD with each separate
- form an instance of that DTD?
-
- Has anybody else designed DTD's for such purposes? I would like to exchange
- some ideas and thoughts.
-
- Cheers, Bernd
