Get results with XML!

With XML, true Web-based information management has arrived. Designing XML Internet Applications is the first complete guide to building XML Internet applications that can automate and simplify virtually every form of electronic communication.

Learn why your organization needs XML-and how it combines SGML's legendary power with the simplicity and accessibility of the best Web-based applications. Walk step-by-step through the fundamentals of XML usage and design: not just basic syntax, but the real-world processes you must understand to achieve XML's full benefits.

Discover specific approaches for building a robust, effective XML-based intranet communications infrastructure-techniques you won't find anywhere else. Build six full-scale, practical XML applications, including bulletin boards, order entry systems, document conversion tools and more. All the Java, C++, C and perl source code you need is included on CD-ROM along with XML parsing tools and Sun Microsystem's Java Development Kit (JDK). There's no better way to jumpstart your own XML application development!

Make no mistake, XML is revolutionary. Don't let the revolution happen without you. Lead it, with Designing XML Internet Applications.

Reviews

Leventhal's book is for programmers who need to use Perl or Java to do XML application development for databases, bulletin boards, E-mail, parsing, and web agents. There is a lot of good information, but this is not easy reading.
