Hi,XML stands for extensible markup language and it is easy to comprehend because you can include or write own tag in the web page using the xml language so it is flexible and so understandable language.

You really do not need to learn XML for beautiful designs. XML family languages are just markup languages. For beauty, learn good CSS techniques and practice graphic designing.

I'm currently the webmaster for two alumni sites and am editor of an astronomy newsletter which is posted on the web. Consequently, I'm learning more about CSS and XHTML. I've read that XML-compliance will be necessary for web sites in the near future.

Any thoughts on the subject?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, I am using XML for web-design. It demonstrate how to generate visual output using XML DTDs, Namespaces, CSS, XSL, and XSLT. I can give you one basic example file is used throughout the book to demonstrate features of CSS XPath and XSLT. Including working with XML, database administration, and connecting sites to databases.

The use of XML has become widespread, but much of it is not well formed. When it is well formed, it's often of poor design, which makes processing and maintenance very difficult.

I was interested to come across an example of CITE and QUOTE tags that uses XHTML 2.0.

Work on XHTML is clearly going forward - More on XHTML is here.

On the client side, I currently use no more XML than XHTML and RSS.

On the server side, I use either YAML or regular code itself: in particular, Lisp s-expressions have a similar tree-like notation, while Python or Ruby code is terse and human-readable.

As standardised interchange formats, XML applications really thrive, but there are better alternatives for pure storage. XML's formalisation and pervasiveness makes it almost ideal for sending data over networks in a client-agnostic way. Its limitations (verbosity) make it less than ideal for internal use.

Expect to continue seeing more XML application markup sent over the wire in the future, especially as web apps grow, but not so much within the server.

I just started learning C# and XML is mentioned quite a bit. If the programming languages MS supports in Visual Studio are all about XML, isn't there a decent chance they're going to transfer that XML support over to IE?

XML support is ubiquitous in all kinds of systems -- there's no risk of it going away (despite MS finally joining the party ). IE7 does support viewing and validating XML documents.

XHTML is in XML, as is

blater — Wed, 14 May 2008 13:26:28 +0000

XHTML is in XML, as is HTML5.

The XHTML/HTML5 languages are implemented in XML and the definition of the subset of XML that it uses is what you're referencing when you put the funny DOCTYPE statement at the top of an XHTML file e.g.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
 "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

So if you write XHTML compliant pages you are already using XML. XML-compliance means writing XHTML compliant pages, which isn't difficult.
