Riassunto

XML (eXtensible Markup Language) is a standards-based technology which is being universally implemented by major corporations such as Microsoft, IBM, and Netscape. It is seen as the information format of the future: a programming language which is more flexible than HTML, allowing excellent accessing and cataloguing of data, and the ability to display it attractively. This resource is written in light of important changes, aimed at Webmasters and designers who want to fully exploit XML's capabilities for presenting data. The challenge is not in knowing how to format an XML tag, but in knowing how, when, and why to incorporate it into a Website. The key to using XML effectively to present data lies in understanding the nature of structured documents and the relationship between data, structure, display interpreters, and final display. By clearly and comprehensively exploring these areas, the authors aim to give readers a firm grasp of the problems that XML solves and how it solves them. The companion Website allows users the opportunity to see XML in action, and to practice design techniques with a live demo.
