What I am hoping to be able to do instead is to write in a content language (XML or SGML) and then convert that to the relavent output format with an automatic processor that applies a stylesheet.
just a quick answer, I've done a fair amout of XML in the past, I wouldn't call myself a guru though..... XML is definatly the way to go imho. If you mark up all the content in XML, and write dedicated XSLT translators to convert the XML into HTML/PDF/RTF, you will be able to add a different XSLT translator at a later date, for exampel to convert your XML into WML or iDTV !!... you might even find there are already some examples out there...
