about my book pages
I used Java and XML to create these pages. I have a XML file, which contains
the book reviews along with information about the book (title, author, ISBN, etc).
I then use a suite of Java programs that I made, to pick up the gifs of each
of the books' covers from the web, make a html file for each review, and
finally generate the listing of the books by author and title.
I do not know of any other book pages which use XML (ignorance is bliss?), but
I'd be interested in seeing a common format for this sort of thing. My XML
DTD is fairly simple, and is available here.
