Combining XUL with SQLite

Look what Neil Deakin has just shown us: a XUL template created without using RDF! The data comes from our beloved embedded database SQLite. This hello world program written by Neil shows us how easy it would be:

<tree datasources="some-db" ref="*" rows="10" flex="1"
      flags="dont-build-content dont-recurse">
  <treecols>
    <treecol id="name" label="Country" flex="1"/>
    <treecol id="capital" label="Capital" flex="1"/>
    <treecol id="population" label="Population" flex="1"/>
  </treecols>
  <template>
    <query>
      select * from Countries where name like '%e%'
    </query>
    <action>
      <treechildren>
        <treeitem uri="?">
          <treerow>
            <treecell label="?name"/>
            <treecell label="?capital"/>
            <treecell label="?population"/>
          </treerow>
        </treeitem>
      </treechildren>
    </action>
  </template>
</tree>

XUL is just getting more and more exciting. :-)
