From the Back Cover

"A superb summary of the main Web technologies. It is broad and deep, giving you enough detail to get real work done. Eminently readable with excellent examples and touches of humour. This book is a gem." – Prof. Philip Wadler, Edinburgh University.

“A unique, detailed, and technically sophisticated introduction to current XML and Web technologies” – Jan Chomicki, Buffalo University.

The evolution of the World Wide Web has been staggering. To support the ever-increasing demands we make on the Web’s capabilities, there has been an explosion of technologies, protocols and standards that all promise to make the Web Developer's life easier, such as XML, XML Schema, XSLT, XQuery, JDOM, Servlets, JSP, SOAP, WSDL and UDDI.

In An Introduction to XML and Web Technologies, Anders M�ller and Michael Schwartzbach expertly decipher this alphabet soup of Web technologies. They lucidly describe the technical features of each standard, compare closely related technologies and show how to implement them in various application scenarios. Part One of this book covers the key XML schema and transformation languages and explains how XML can co-exist with general purpose programming languages. Part Two describes technologies for building Web servers and the standards for defining, publishing and connecting to Web services. This book is essential reading for students on Web development or XML courses, as well as practitioners seeking to improve their insight into this exciting subject area.
