3.  e X tensible M arkup L anguage  Based on Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML)  Version 1.0 introduced by World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) in 1998  Bridge for data exchange on the Web

4.  Extensible set of tags  Content orientated  errors are not allowed  Allows multiple output forms  Fixed set of tags  Presentation oriented  Ignore many HTML errors  Single presentation XML HTML

5.  An XML element is made up of a start tag, an end tag, and data in between.  Example: Majid Majidi  Example of another element with the same value: Parviz Parastooi  XML tags are case-sensitive:  XML can abbreviate empty elements, for example: can be abbreviated to

6.  An attribute is a name-value pair separated by an equal sign (=).  Example: Isfahan  Attributes are used to attach additional, secondary information to an element.

7.  A basic XML document is an XML element that can, but might not, include nested XML elements.  Example: Second Chance Matthew Dunn

9.  Authoring guidelines: › All elements must have an end tag. › Elements must be properly nested, e.g. not book and title › All attribute values must be enclosed in quotation marks. › Each document must have a unique first element, the root node.

10.  Comments can be put anywhere in an XML document  Comments are not elements and do not have an end tag  The blanks after are optional  The closing bracket must be -->  Comments are not displayed by browsers, but can be seen by anyone who looks at the source code  Example :

11.  An XML document may have an optional DTD.  DTD serves as grammar for the underlying XML document, and it is part of XML language.  DTDs are somewhat unsatisfactory, but no consensus exists so far beyond the basic DTDs.  DTD has the form: <!DOCTYPE root [markupdeclaration]>

12.  Consider an XML document: Ali 42 ali@gmail.com ……… ………. db Person 42 age nameemail ali@gmail.com Person … ali

13.  DTD for it might be: <!DOCTYPE db [ ]>

14.  If the elements within your document must appear in a distinct order, you should define your content model using a sequence.  To achieve this, simply list the element names separated by commas.  Example: ›

15.  Example: › › This declaration mandates that we would allow our element to contain one or one or one or one › If element were empty, or if it contained more than one of these the parser would raise an error.
