About this title

Synopsis

XML In Easy Steps instructs the reader how to create valid, well-formed, XML documents to describe a variety of data. It contains separate chapters on all major features of the eXtensible Markup Language (XML), together with the associated technologies of Document Type Definition (DTD), XMLSchema, eXtensible Stylesheet Language (XSL), XPath, XLink, and XPointer, There are code examples and browser screenshots that illustrate how that example might appear when viewed in a web browser.

XML In Easy Steps begins by examining the evolution of XML then explains the basic structure of an XML document. The book describes how to define rules for each XML element-first using the traditional DTD method, then using the newer XMLSchema language. Examples show how each element node of an XML document can be addressed individually using the XPath language. There are demonstrations of how to format the appearance of XML documents in a web browser-with both eXtensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) rules and with Cascading Stylesheet (CSS) rules. The final chapter creates a complete working XML application to illustrate the XML Document Object Model (DOM). The reader need have no previous knowledge of any markup language so it's ideal for the newcomer to XML. Each chapter builds the reader's knowledge of XML. By the end of this book the reader will have gained a sound understanding of XML and be able to create their own schemas and XML data documents.

XML In Easy Steps has an easy-to-follow style that will appeal to anyone who wants to begin using XML. It will appeal to programmers who want to quickly add XML to their skills set, and to the student who is studying website design, and to those seeking a career in web development who need an understanding of XML.
And, all at a value-price!

Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
