Cooking with XML and LROs
Using XML and PHP to Combine Reusable Learning Objects

NOTE: The PHP files for the two Recipes pages are not currently hosted on a server that parses PHP. The links to the recipes in the left menu go to screen shots of the resulting output pages. Links to the individual original files are listed below.

Site Flowchart

For this project, small RLOs (text and graphics files) are used to produce a larger RLO (the Web pages for this project, including this page). Below is a Flow Chart diagramming how the site is constructed.

By clicking on the recipe links to the left, you will see two recipes; one for Sour Cream Pumpkin Pie and another for Brown Sugar Pecan Pie. While each appears as two different HTML pages in the browser, they are actually pages that are built using a collection of text and graphics files, some shared on both pages and others unique to each page. The files that are shared on both pages are single-sourced; they only exist once and are called for each page as it displays.
