Product Description

Product Description
XML (eXtensible Markup Language) extends the flexibility of SGML to Web page creation. This is an introduction to the structure and syntax of XML and guides the reader through employing this evolving technology into their own Web projects. It discusses how to create document types that are easy to author, manage, share and transmit across the Web. It also explains how to extend HTML by creating tags and attributes to automate data delivery. This reference is also cross-referenced with "XML for Dummies".

5.0 out of 5 stars Well-worth the small price., 2 Jun 1999
By A Customer
This book is worth buying for the step-by-step instructions on how to write any type of DTD alone. The descriptions and examples of attributes, elements, entities, and character entities are useful as well. I was surprised to see a fair amount of space devoted to XML developments, such as with Java, Perl, style sheets, and more--but it's there. I recommend this quick reference as a starter or a companion to some of the larger XML books on the market.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't live without it!, 26 May 1999
By A Customer
I highly recommend this book to anyone who needs a good technical reference for XML, although anyone who is still learning XML will probably find this book useful as well. I was pleasantly surprised to find everything I needed for my project within this small book: the syntax of composing a DTD, declarations for all the elements and entities I was looking for, and tons of examples. The other books I looked at provide a lot of historical information, which I don't find useful and don't have time to read. If you remove all that and just keep the stuff you can use, you get this book.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book is little more than an extended table of contents, 8 Dec 1998
By A Customer
This book is little more than an extended table of contents for the full version of the book. If you don't have the full version, this book is of little use. If you do have the full version, you already have the table of contents. The examples are weak, and the bulk of the actual useful information is just an interpretation of the XML specification from the W3C. The other major shortcoming is that it contains a number of simple errors such as consistantly mixing up the unicode character's and their hexadecimal values.
