Several people did not answer question 2 on the quiz correctly.  The question was

Sally wants to include a specific piece of data from the School Description XML file and information about each of the students in the School Registration file in a report document.  Sally can

a.        Use “document” to reference the data from the School Description file in the report, or

b.      She can embed the specific information from the School Description XML file in the CSS for the report.

Which approach do you recommend?  Explain why.

There are two correct  answers:

a.       If the data from the School Description file changes over time, then use document() to reference it.  Embedding the data in the CSS file will make the data out of date when the corresponding data in the School Description file changes.

c.       If the data from the School Description file never changes, then embed that information in the CSS for the report.
