Digital Financial Reporting

In an earlier post I mentioned that I had created a mashup controller page containing information about SEC filings.  Here I am using that information to create two really simple to create but useful demos which compare SEC Interactive data filings and SEC filers taxonomies:

• Compare Interactive Data Information. This takes two SEC Interactive Data renderings, puts them into one HTML Frame, and shows you two filings side-by-side.  Not that sophisticated or hard to do, but it seems useful to me.
• Compare XBRL Taxonomies Presentation View. This takes two HTML renderings of XBRL taxonomies, puts them side-by-side so you can compare filer taxonomies.
• Compare Extension Concepts Added. This allows you to select two companies and then compare the extension concepts added to their taxonomy of each, side-by-side.

Now, there is a lot you can do to make this better.  For example, provide a combo box which allows the user to select the two filings or taxonomies that they want to compare.
