Review
Books about XML often provide more detail than the reader needs but don't provide enough coverage of related technologies. It is under this premise that Michael J. Young has written Step by Step XML, a kinder and gentler tutorial to XML.
The first thing the reader notices about this book is its light, illustrative style. Well-designed syntax diagrams and pieces of sample code ease XML newcomers into each topic. Well-formed and valid XML syntax is presented at a leisurely pace, with plenty of examples. XML display using cascading style sheets (CSS) is presented in a similar manner.
Those new to XML should be aware of the topics this book leaves out, however. For example, there is no discussion of schemas--the upcoming alternative to Document Type Definition (DTDs)--and there is relatively little explanation of XML as a data transfer mechanism. Data binding is discussed, but the focus is definitely on using XML as a presentation vehicle.
While this shouldn't be your only XML tutorial, it's a comfortable introduction to the basics and will be especially applicable to your work if you code for IE5. For a first taste of XML, it's a fine place to start. --Stephen W. Plain, amazon.com
Topics covered:
- XML document structure
- Well-formed versus valid documents
