An excellent guide for gaining an understanding of the fundamental concepts that comprise XML. I have been implementing XML for several years (SVG, XHTML, even creating custom schemas), but did not realize how incomplete my knowledge of related concepts (particularly DTDs, XSL, and XSL-FO) truly was until I found this book. The detailed information on creating new document types via DTDs, XML schemas, RELAX NG, and Schematron (and the differences between them) is vital for those seeking to expand the horizons of their document systems, while the guides to using XPath and XPointer apply to anyone referring to one document from another. Learning XML is a must-read for novices and veteran implementors alike. |
