Mozquito: Deng pre-alpha examples

Earlier we reported about Mozquito, a company that is developing a Flash MX XML/CSS2 renderer. Today they released some more examples showing off the features of their Deng engine (IE6 only so far): blog-like application “deng in 5 points”, rendering of a simple weather report xml, rendering of a standard rss xml feed Note that those are only XML files (View>Source in your browser), they just contain two extra processing instructions that transform and style the XML document. Deng is still in the pre-alpha stages but currently still offers some awesome features, like fully W3C compliant rendering of XML documents styled using basic CSS2 (XML stylesheets) and form functionality to edit styled XML (in page WYSIWYG editing) that can be submitted back to the server. Mozquito promises to ship Deng as Flash MX Components (modularized deployment, add on components for additional namespaces and even allowing third party modules) as well as a standalone engine using XSLT to take care of the XML to Flash mapping.
