XML Family of Specifications: A Practical Guide

March 29, 2002

This manuscript is an excerpt from the Ken Sall book XML Family of Specifications: A Practical Guide.

In this chapter, we cover the rules of XML syntax that are stated or implied in the XML 1.0 Recommendation from the W3C. A considerable amount of XML terminology is introduced, including discussions of pars-ing, well-formedness, and validation. XML document structure, legal XML Names, and CDATA are also among the topics.The XML 1.0 specification also discusses rules for Document Type Definitions (DTDs), which we present in chapter 4. The material in chapters 3 and 4 is very interrelated.

Who is this book for?

As XML continues to mature, developers need to understand how this standard and its related technologies are revolutionizing software development. XML Family of Specifications provides a complete roadmap for understanding how XML, XSL, XML Schema, and related specifications interlink to create powerful, real-world applications.
