Storing the metadata as XML is impractical, searching becomes very clumsey - the diffinitive(sp?) copy of the data will remain in the database, however the new version may have multiple pages for one record - eg: one with subjects and links in french and one in english. I may try to look into making XML versions of the abstract pages and views pages which get regenerated at the same time - that would mean they could be harvested/processed without any extra load on the server.... Hmmm. Don't hold your breath, though. On Thu, May 10, 2001 at 07:33:26AM -0500, Faine, Mark wrote: > Ok, I've noticed there are several different upload types and an > arbirtrary flag.
