6. Potential Applications of XML  Three-Tier Applications:  Personalized Web Site  On-Line Auction  E Commerce  Integration  Content Acquisition  Content Management  Portals  Publishing  Databases  Schemas management  Product Catalog  E-commerce vocabulary  Voice Transformation  Mobile XML Voice  Semantic Web  Knowledge Navigation  Metadata Description  Topic maps  Web services  Infrastructure

7. Types of Information Sharing  Information Posting /Publishing: Paper; CD-ROM; HTML/XHTML.  Data Integration: cXML (Ariba); tpaML (IBM); xCBL (ConmmerceOne); BizTalk (Microsoft); eCo (CommerceNet); eConcert (RosettaNet); ebXML (UN/CEFACT and OASIS).  Automated Trading: Electronic Data Interchange (EDI).

16. Example of ADO <% dim cConn, rsData 'connects to the Access driver and Access database strProvider = "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ="& server.mappath ("ROSTER.mdb") 'creates an instance of an Active Server component set cConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") 'opens the connection to the data base cConn.Open strProvider ‘SQL Query Set rsData = cConn.Execute("select * from roster") %>

17. Example of ODBC <% dim cConn, rsData ‘Setup ODBC Connection (ROSTER ID:sa) 'creates an instance of an Active Server component set cConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") 'opens the connection to the data base cConn.Open "ROSTER","sa","" ‘SQL Query Set rsData = cConn.Execute("select * from roster") %>

18. ODBC Example 2 <%set conn=server.createobject ("adodb.connection") conn.open "driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; dbq="& server.mappath ("ROSTER.mdb") set rs=conn.execute("select * from roster") do while not rs.eof %>

19. ODBC Example 2 <% rs.movenext loop %>
