Synopsis

This book/CD ROM combo provides a overview of XML and illustrates its use in real world examples. It also presents details of XML standards and looks at how it can be used in tandem with its parent language SGML. Comparisons are made throughout the book with the well-known HTML language that dominates the world-wide web today. XML technologies built into Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 and examples of building XML utility applications in the Perl, Python, and Java programming languages are also covered.
