XML Summary What to learn next?


XML Summary

XML can be used to exchange, share, and store data.

XML documents form a tree structure that starts at the "root" and branches to "leaves".

XML has very simple syntax rules. XML with correct syntax is "well-formed". Valid XML is validated against a DTD.

XSLT is used to transform XML into other formats, such as HTML.

All modern browsers have a built-in XML parser that can read and manipulate XML.

The DOM (Document Object Model) defines a standard way to access XML.

The XMLHttpRequest object provides a way to communicate with the server after a web page has loaded.

XML namespaces provide a way to avoid element name conflicts.

Text inside CDATA sections is ignored by the parser.

Our XML examples also represent a summary of this XML tutorial.


What to learn next?

We recommend learning XML DOM and XSLT.

If you want to learn about validating XML, we recommend learning DTD and XML Schema.

Below is a short description of each topic.


XML DOM (Document Object Model)

XML DOM defines a standard way to access and manipulate XML documents.

XML DOM is platform and language independent, and can be used with any programming language such as Java, JavaScript, and VBScript.

If you want to learn more about DOM, please visit our XML DOM Tutorial.


XSLT (XML Stylesheet Language Transformations)

XSLT is the stylesheet language for XML files.

By using XSLT, XML documents can be transformed into other formats, such as XHTML.

If you want to learn more about XSLT, please visit our XSLT Tutorial.


XML DTD (Document Type Definition)

The purpose of DTD is to define the legal elements, attributes, and entities in an XML document.

By using DTD, each XML file can carry its own format description.

DTD can be used to verify whether the data you receive and your own data are valid.
