changes, but I quickly skimmed the XML file you provided, and I think we are
headed in the correct direction. I remember considering the requirement to
render multiple layers (roads and rivers, for example) from the same input file
after I sent my first sample. That means you’ve got to think about z
ordering when you render and about associating a style with each layer. It
looks like you’ve done this with some of your changes. I will try to ask
some questions about your other mods and post a revised XML file based on your
suggestions tomorrow.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

need help with some suggestions from the group on the best way to handle XML

group, in which case I will use Java, since I will be much faster with that

<br>
I looked at your schema quickly and made some "changes". I just
noticed that I'm mixing map composition (within a software) with map printing
properties. Sorry about that.<br>
<br>
This of course, is just a suggestion :P<br>

one<br>

by many<br>
apps in slightly different ways..?<br>
