Unlike other programming books, CodeNotes for XML drills down to the core aspects of a technology, focusing on the key elements needed in order to understand it quickly and implement it immediately. It is a unique resource for developers, filling the gap between comprehensive manuals and pocket references. CodeNotes for XML is a practical handbook for Java and Visual Basic developers interested in working with XML. You will learn how to leverage both CSS and XSLT to produce rich, compelling output, as well as manipulate XML using the DOM and SAX APIs. The new XML Schema specification is also covered in-depth. CodeNotes for XML is your guide to these powerful technologies, presented within the context of the distributed application, database, or web-based world you already know. This edition of CodeNotes for XML includes: • A global overview of a technology and explanation of what problems it can be used to solve • Real-world examples • "How and Why" and "Bugs and Caveats" sections that provide hints, tricks, workarounds, and tips on what should be taken advantage of or avoided - Instructions and classroom-style tutorials throughout from expert trainers and software developers.See "About the Authors" for more information. Customer Reviews Reviewer: A reader from New Brunswick, NJ To the point and stripped of marketing, this book will get you understanding the intracacies of XML in a few hours. Reviewer: Nimesh Khatri from Helotes, TX United States If you want to learn the guts of XML and want do it in a short period of time, then this is the right book. The book starts out very well with everything you should know about XML (XML Syntax, Namespace, Well formed XML, DTD etc.) in a few pages and then gets to the core XSLT, XPath, programming DOM and SAX, and finally XML Schema. A very good read that serves the purpose. Reviewer: weerich from Florida Just a quick note for all you people looking to pick up these notes... well if you are like me, and reading 300 pages on your computer screen makes your eyes go to hell... then don't buy this. You don't get the rights to even print the damn thing, and are stuck staring at your screen like a deer in headlights. Make sure to take long breaks in between each chapter, as I find bashing my head on my desk helps relieve some of the eye strain. Reviewer: A reader from Redmond, WA USA This series of books is great for getting a handle on the new technologies. They are written in a straightforward manner to provide maximum information in minimal time and investment. |
