You're wrong on that. Just think about a little bit. How could a
hierarchy be more flexible than the free form nature of a language? If
you think so, try to formulate your next sentence in a tree structure.
The success of HTML was not a fluke. The marked up language is a simple
yet very powerful concept. That's why the interface of Mozilla is done
through a marked up language. It's also why the next generation Windows
user interface is based on a marked up language. You know those Vista
gadgets? Powered by HTML.
The widget library is an idea. Marked up language is the future.
