XML Programming Bible


This section starts with an XML concepts chapter that gives an overview and history of XML, its purposes, and comparisons against previous and alternative data integration technologies. We then proceed to describe XML basic formats, XML well-formedness, and XML validation against DTDs and schemas. The chapters on XSL transformations and XSL formatting objects illustrate the transformation and formatting of XML data using XML via working examples. Part I ends with examples of parsing XML documents, including examples of XML parsing using SAX and DOM.
Chapter 1: XML Concepts provides readers who are new to XML with an overview and history of XML, its purposes, and comparisons against previous and alternative integration technologies. We end the chapter with an introduction to the next XML version, XML 1.1.
Chapter 2: XML Documents applies the theory from Chapter 1 to real-world, practical examples. This chapter expands on the theory and concepts introduced in the previous chapter. We introduce you to two example documents that contain many of the issues that confront an XML programmer. The first document is a compila- tion of XML from three sources. The second document separates and identifies the three parts of the document using XML namespaces. Along the way, we introduce you to some predefined XML attributes. We show you how to specify languages using the xml:lang attribute, and how to preserve space and linefeed settings in text data using the xml:space attribute.
