| Overview
If you're a developer working with XML, you know there's a lot to
know about XML, and the XML space is evolving almost moment by
moment. But you don't need to commit every XML syntax, API, or XSLT
transformation to memory; you only need to know where to find it.
And if it's a detail that has to do with XML or its companion
standards, you'll find it--clear, concise, useful, and
well-organized--in the updated third edition of XML in a
Nutshell. With XML in a Nutshell beside your keyboard,
you'll be able to:
Quick-reference syntax rules and usage examples for the core
XML technologies, including XML, DTDs, Xpath, XSLT, SAX, and
DOM Develop an understanding of well-formed XML, DTDs, namespaces,
Unicode, and W3C XML Schema Gain a working knowledge of key technologies used for narrative
XML documents such as web pages, books, and articles technologies
like XSLT, Xpath, Xlink, Xpointer, CSS, and XSL-FO Build data-intensive XML applications Understand the tools and APIs necessary to build data-intensive
XML applications and process XML documents, including the
event-based Simple API for XML (SAX2) and the tree-oriented
Document Object Model (DOM)
This powerful new edition is the comprehensive XML reference.
Serious users of XML will find coverage on just about everything
they need, from fundamental syntax rules, to details of DTD and XML
Schema creation, to XSLT transformations, to APIs used for
processing XML documents. XML in a Nutshell also covers XML
1.1, as well as updates to SAX2 and DOM Level 3 coverage. If you
need explanation of how a technology works, or just need to quickly
find the precise syntax for a particular piece, XML in a
Nutshell puts the information at your fingertips. Simply put,
XML in a Nutshell is the critical, must-have reference for
any XML developer.

Reader Reviews From Amazon (Ranked by 'Helpfulness') Average Customer Rating: based on 16 reviews. XML Reference, 2009-05-29 Reviewer rating: Book is a software technical reference. Book was delivered in a timely way, and was in excellent condition. | The XML reference, 2008-09-10 Reviewer rating: The book is a reference for all XML standards ( XML , XPath , XSLT , XLink , XSL-FO , XML Schema , DTD , Xpointer , Xinclde , CSS ) and also covers DOM and SAX for manipulating XML , although the book covers the basics of XML in the first five chapters , the rest of the book assumes you have experience with the XML standards and need a complete reference for them , and the book do thr right job for that :) , it's the best reference available for XML . | for code jockeys that need a quick reference for their angle brackets, 2008-02-02 Reviewer rating: XML: the grab-bag, so-what-you-will, make-it-up-as-you-go-along, there-are-rules-strict-rules-(sort-of) technology that bends you to its will as much as you can bend it to yours. And this book is a decent round-up of the most common, widely-deployed implementations -- with enough general knowledge to help you sort through the more specific ones (or help you in creating your own).
A better title for it might have been: "XML: A Developer's Almanac". (Which, I suppose is a good-enough alternative title for any book in the O'Reilly "Nutshell" series.) | By far, the best book available on XML, 2007-11-01 Reviewer rating: This book is by far the best book I've read on XML. Typical of O'Reilly "In a Nutshell" books, the converage of XML is fast paced and complete. Your money will be well spent on this book. I even think most beginners will do well with this one! | Best XML reference I ever saw, 2007-03-04 Reviewer rating: This book claims to be your only needed guide in XML and related topics. It covers almost all you can imagine. I liked it very much and glad, that I have a book, that I can use like XML reference.
I have just nothing to say about this book except it contains ALL information one can need on XML. |
