Week 9 Notes

XML

XML is part of the Standard Generalized Markup Language. It is designed to make it easy to interchange documents over the Internet.
XML lets users: bring files together to form compound documents, identify where illustrations are to be placed into text files, provide processing control information to supporting programs
and add editorial comments to a file.

XML is different from HTML because it does not have a preset group of tags. There is no standard template associated with XML. It is defined by the user.
