It includes functions for working with XML documents that make common operations fairly easy, such as the ability to take a String and convert it to an XML formatted document and display it. The primary advantage is that the ...

A valid document by definition, is a well-formed XML document. But validity goes one step further. A valid XML document is also a well-formed SGML document, and as such, can be read and interpreted as one. In the last section, we reviewed the process of creating a "well-formed" XML document. As you saw, there are many rules you must follow in order to assure that your XML document is well-formed. But even when you write well-formed XML documents, you're not quite out of the woods! Making your do...

For starters, XML stands for Extensible Markup Language and it grew organically from the need to improve the functionality of Web technologies through the use of a more flexible and adaptable means to identify information. XML is a metalanguage. That is, it is a language that describes other languages. While it may sound circular, even Webopedia defines it as such. What this really means is that XML is more of a standard and supporting structure than a standalone programming language. It is a st...

XML stands for EXtensible Markup Language. XML is used to describe and carry data.You may not think this looks like a database or a data file, since XML was not designed display data. There are many ways to display the data in a XML document. One way is to use XSL (the eXtensible Stylesheet Language). With XSL you can display information in your XML document.

This part of the tutorial discusses CDATA as well as XML entities, declarations and comments. As we have already said, it is a pretty good rule of thumb to consider anything outside of tags to be character data and anything inside of tags to be considered markup. But alas, in one case this is not true. In the special case of CDATA blocks, all tags and entity references are ignored by an XML processor that treats them just like any old character data....

In HTML, both the tag semantics and the tag set are fixed. An is always a first level heading and the tag is meaningless. The W3C, in conjunction with browser vendors and the WWW community, is constantly working to extend the definition of HTML to allow new tags to keep pace with changing technology and to bring variations in presentation (stylesheets) to the Web. However, these changes are always rigidly confined by what the browser vendors have implemented and by the fact that backward compat...

ID and IDREF, NMTOKEN and NMTOKENS, Notation type, entities, internal versus external DTDs and public DTDs. ID represents a unique ID name for the attribute that identifies the element within the context of the document. IDs are much like internal links in plain HTML. For the most part, ID is used primarily by programs or scripting languages that process the document. The value for ID must be a valid XML name beginning with a letter and containing alphanumeric characters or the underscore charac...
