Product Description
Using a visual approach to demonstrate the XML code, XML: Your visual blueprint" for building expert Web pages with CSS, XHTML, and XSLT offers visual learners a solid reference that employs straight forward examples to teach users to create Web sites with impact. XML (Extensible Markup Language) allows Web developers to enhance database connectivity, enrich pages with specialized data elements, and otherwise move beyond the limitations of HTML. This highly visual tutorial demonstrates over 100 different XML operations, from setting up styles with Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSLT) to migrating HTML websites to XHTML. "Apply It" and "Extra" sidebars highlight useful tips and high-resolution screen shots clearly illustrate each task while succinct explanations walk readers through the examples. Step-by-step, two-page lessons break topics into bite-sized modules that are easy to digest and the associated website contains all the code needed to follow the author's examples in the book.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good starting place for xml., August 13, 2008
This book presents some good, simple information. The screen shots are nice except they are hard to read if you want to try to recreate them on your own. My biggest objection to the book is its use of XMLSpy as an application of creating the XML. XMLSpy, as the book indicates, is very expensive and not at all necessary for successfully completing an exercise in xml. This is particularly true for such an elementary book as this.
