What does this book cover? Provides a starting point for newcomers to XML Covers Document Type Definitions and XML Schemas Teaches all aspects of the XML Document Object Model Explores tranformations using CSS and XSL stylesheets Acts as a concise guide and reference to XML Examines the XML-specific features of the IE5 browser Looks at evolving XML standards and technologies The fastest track to working with XML and XSL in IE5

Review:

A handy and straightforward owner's manual to XML, XML in IE5 Programmer's Reference surveys the current state of XML as it applies to Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 and provides an excellent introduction to the many composite aspects of XML.

The opening chapter--entitled "What is XML?"--is one of the best overviews of XML you'll find. It covers the history and the promise of the language and answers many of the basic questions new XML coders will undoubtedly have.

Author Alex Homer gives clear examples of the use of XML and covers what features IE 5 supports. This introduction is followed by a chapter that defines the XML document structure and shows how all of the various components, such as DTDs (Document Type Definitions), XSL (Extensible Stylesheet Language), XPL (Extensible Pointer Language) and XLL (Extensible Linking Language) all fit together.

Next the author presents the details of how DTDs and XML schemas can be used to frame the data your XML documents will work with. He also provides good coverage of the Xlink and Xpointer languages for connecting XML documents and the information they access. The book explains the XML Document Object Model (DOM) with plenty of short code snippets to illustrate syntax. Appendices offer reference to the IE 5 DOM, XML constructs, and cascading style sheet properties. This title is great for learning XML, but it will serve you just as well down the road as a handy reference. --Stephen W. Plain

Store Description

We are a family run online bookshop based in Wales at the western edge of the Brecon Beacons National park and have been selling books online since October 2004. I have always had a love of books and it eventually got to the stage where my own book collection began to take over the family home! I reluctantly decided to sell a few of my own books on Amazon and was astonished at how quickly they sold. I was hooked and decided to start buying and selling books as a small part-time business from my spare bedroom. The business rapidly expanded, taking over the spare bedroom and my garage, swiftly followed by a spare bedroom in my mother's house and her garage! I acquired a small industrial unit in February 2007 and took the plunge to go full-time in March 2007, closely followed by my wife in September 2007. In October 2007 we moved in to larger premises and also took on our first members of staff to assist with the ever increasing workload. Our aim is to ensure that the people who buy our books enjoy the same service that we would hope for when purchasing a book ourselves. To that end, we endeavour to give all our books accurate descriptions, price them accordingly and dispatch swiftly and safely. All orders are dispatched within one working day, Monday to Friday. We will endeavour to answer all queries by email within 24 hours.
