WorkflowDifferentiate an exhibition script to a group of
interlinked exhibition elementsUse an XML document to convey the
content of an exhibition elementUse XSL documents to present
exhibition elementsUse RDBMS to manage the structured XML
documents, media objects, hyperlinks
Using XML/XSL, how far can it go for multimedia-demanded digital
