Overview

XML, the Extensible Markup Language, is the next-generation markup language for the Web. It provides a more structured and more powerful medium than HTML, allowing us to define new document types and stylesheets as needed. Although the generic tags of HTML are sufficient for everyday text, XML gives us a way to add rich, well-defined markup to electronic documents.

The XML Pocket Reference, Second Edition, is both a handy introduction to XML terminology and syntax, and a quick reference to XML instructions, attributes, entities, and datatypes. Although XML itself is complex, its basic concepts are simple. This small book serves both as a perfect tutorial for learning the basics of XML, and as a reference to the XML specification. This second edition includes information on XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) and XPath.
