XML Information
XML (Extensible Markup
Language) is a markup language much like HTML which defines a set of rules for encoding
documents electronically. It is defined in the XML 1.0 Specification produced by the
W3C
(World Wide Web Consortium).
XML’s design goals emphasize simplicity, generality, and usability over the Internet. XML allows text data to defined using your own descriptive tags. Unlike HTML, XML has no predefined tags.
An XML Schema is a description of a type of XML document, typically expressed in terms of constraints on the structure and content of documents of that type, above and beyond the basic syntactical constraints imposed by XML itself.
