What is XML? XML, or eXtensible Markup Language, is a metalanguage.
That is, it's a language that can be used to describe other
languages and a specification for storing information. Although XML
and HTML may seem to have a lot in common, in reality the
difference between them is like the difference between night and
day. HTML is used to format information, but it isn't very useful
when it comes to describing information. For example, you can use
HTML to format a table, but you can't use HTML to describe the data
elements within the table. The reason for this is that you can't
really depict something as abstract as a distributor or a customer
with HTML, which is where XML comes into the picture. XML can be,
and is, used to define the structure of data rather than its
format. This 50-page Fast Start guide begins by showing you the
basics of the XML language and then builds on that knowledge to
show you how to create an XML document.
