摘要

A system for integrated support in an XML/XQuery database residing within a binary object XML repository (BOXR) for web-based applications includes web browser(s) for sending at least one HTTP request for hxl pages. Hxl pages are defined as web pages containing embedded XQuery expressions, with XQuery being an interactive program used to access data. Server module(s) coordinate operations within a control system including an XML/XQuery database. An hxl processor module provides web application support, and a BOXR XQuery engine processes XQuery queries. An XML repository provides stored representation of XML data.
