I'm starting to experiment a little with XML, I have seen XML islands created and used to populate controls on an HTML form. I didn't see a lot of utility in that, it seemed much easier to just pass back a recordset or record object using the SCATTER NAME command and do the same.

For web development, how will XML benefit us most? Is it the displaying of data? Does it allow more flexibility in this regard?

For example, if you want to display a complex vfp report in a web broswer, like something that came out of the report writer on a windows based VFP app, that would be difficult to do with HTML, would XML allows us to do that?
