Version 0 of Periodic Table of Chemical Elements

Updated 2007-05-19 22:12:06 by FF

FF 2007-05-20 - Today, while studying chemistry, I needed some distraction (mainly an excuse to leave my chemistry book alone for a while). I searched for a periodic table visualizer on the wiki, but couldn't find one. So I've made it. The basic version was just 120 lines long and it took about an hour... then I made it more complete, adding a popup showing every available detail from periodic.xml [L1 ]

I used tDOM package for parsing XML, using XPath to keep things simple.
