XML Essentials

XML (Extensible Markup Language) is a language used primarily for the management, display and organization of data. XML consists of tags used to define elements and is derived from SGML or Standard Generalized Markup Language for use on the web. XML's key design goals strive for simplicity and support from a wide variety of applications that transfer data over the Internet. XML has given rise to a subset of technologies such as XSL Transformations (XSLT), the XML Path Language (XPath), and XML Query Language (XQuery). This learning path describes XML and explains how to create, write, develop, and implement XML. It also outlines how XML can be used as an Internet technology and on the World Wide Web.
