68. | By: Robert Eckstein Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc. Publication Date: 01-OCT-1999 Insert Date: 27-SEP-2002 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: XML Pocket Reference
XML, the Extensible Markup Language, is the next-generation markup
language for the Web. It provides a more structured (and therefore
more powerful) medium than HTML, allowing us to define new document
types and stylesheets as needed. Although the generic tags of HTML
are sufficient for everyday text, XML gives us a way to add rich,
well-defined markup to electronic documents. The XML Pocket
Reference is both a handy introduction to XML terminology and
syntax, and a quick reference to XML instructions, attributes,
entities, and datatypes. It also covers XSL (Extensible Stylesheet
Language),...

70. | By: Dave Pawson Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc. Publication Date: 19-AUG-2002 Insert Date: 26-SEP-2002 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: XSL-FO
No matter how flexible and convenient digital information has
become, we haven't done away with the need to see information in
print. Extensible Style Language-Formatting Objects, or XSL-FO, is
a set of tools developers and web designers use to describe page
printouts of their XML (including XHTML) documents. If you need to
produce high quality printed material from your XML documents, then
XSL-FO provides the bridge. XSL-FO is one of the few books
to go beyond a basic introduction to the technology. While many
books touch on XSL-FO in their treatment of XSLT, this book offers
in-depth...

72. | By: John Simpson Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc. Publication Date: 31-JUL-2002 Insert Date: 26-SEP-2002 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: XPath and XPointer
Referring to specific information inside an XML document is a
little like finding a needle in a haystack: how do you
differentiate the information you need from everything else? XPath
and XPointer are two closely related languages that play a key role
in XML processing by allowing developers to find these needles and
manipulate embedded information. XPath describes a route for
finding specific items by defining a path through the hierarchy of
an XML document, abstracting only the information that's relevant
for identifying the data. XPointer extends XPath to identify more
complex parts of...

73. | By: Brett McLaughlin Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc. Publication Date: 28-MAY-2002 Insert Date: 26-SEP-2002 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Java & XML Data Binding
More Java developers today want to work with XML, the technology
that enables data to be transported intact over the Internet, but
they don't have time to become XML experts. If this describes you,
then you'll appreciate data binding, the new way of converting XML
documents into Java objects, so those documents can be worked on
and manipulated like any other Java object, then converted back to
XML
This new title provides an in-depth technical look at XML Data
Binding. The book offers complete documentation of all features in
both the Sun Microsystems JAXB API and popular open...

74. | By: Eric van der Vlist Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc. Publication Date: 25-JUN-2002 Insert Date: 26-SEP-2002 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: XML Schema
If you need to create or use formal descriptions of XML
vocabularies, the W3C's XML Schema offers a powerful set of tools
for defining acceptable document structures and content. An
alternative to DTDs as the way to describe and validate data in an
XML environment, XML Schema enables developers to create precise
descriptions with a richer set of datatypes?such as booleans,
numbers, currencies, dates and times?that are essential for today?s
applications. Schemas are powerful, but that power comes with
substantial complexity. This concise book explains the ins and outs
of XML Schema, including...

75. | By: David Brownell Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc. Publication Date: 03-JAN-2002 Insert Date: 26-SEP-2002 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: SAX2
This concise book gives you the information you need to effectively
use the Simple API for XML (SAX2), the dominant API for efficient
XML processing with Java. With the SAX2 API, developers have access
to the information in XML documents as they are read, without
imposing major memory constraints or a large code footprint. SAX2
is often used by other APIs "under the covers", and provides a
foundation for processing and creating both XML and non-XML
information. While generally considered the most efficient approach
to handling XML document parsing, SAX2 also carries a significant
learning...

76. | By: Brett McLaughlin Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc. Publication Date: 22-AUG-2001 Insert Date: 26-SEP-2002 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Java and XML, Second Edition
While the XML "buzz" still dominates talk among Internet
developers, the critical need is for information that cuts through
the hype and lets Java programmers put XML to work. Java &
XML shows how to use the APIs, tools, and tricks of XML to
build real-world applications, with the end result that both the
data and the code are portable. This second edition of Java
& XML adds chapters on Advanced SAX and Advanced DOM, new
chapters on SOAP and data binding, and new examples throughout. A
concise chapter on XML basics introduces concepts, and the rest of
the book focuses on using XML from your...

77. | By: Eric M. Burke Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc. Publication Date: 04-SEP-2001 Insert Date: 26-SEP-2002 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Java and XSLT
The power of XSLT is its ability to change the structure or format
of any content that can be converted to XML. Java and XSLT
shows you how to use XSL transformations in Java programs ranging
from stand-alone applications to servlets. After an introduction to
XSLT, the book focuses on applying transformations in some
real-world scenarios, such as developing a discussion forum,
transforming documents from one form to another, and generating
content for wireless devices. Java and XSLT discusses
several common XSLT processors and the TRAX API, paying special
attention to performance issues....

79. | By: Doug Tidwell Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc. Publication Date: 23-AUG-2001 Insert Date: 26-SEP-2002 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: XSLT
XSLT documents a core technology for processing XML.
Originally created for page layout, XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet
Transformations) is now much more: a general-purpose translation
tool, a system for reorganizing document content, and a way to
generate multiple results-- such as HTML, WAP, and SVG--from the
same content. What sets XSLT apart from other books on this
critical tool is the depth of detail and breadth of knowledge that
Doug Tidwell, a developer with years of XSLT experience, brings to
his concise treatment of the many talents of XSLT. He covers XSLT
and XPath, a critical...

80. | By: Erik T. Ray Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc. Publication Date: 01-JAN-2001 Insert Date: 26-SEP-2002 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Learning XML
The arrival of support for XML--the Extensible Markup Language--in
browsers and authoring tools has followed a long period of intense
hype. Major databases, authoring tools (including Microsoft's
Office 2000), and browsers are committed to XML support. Many
content creators and programmers for the Web and other media are
left wondering, "What can XML and its associated standards really
do for me?" Getting the most from XML requires being able to tag
and transform XML documents so they can be processed by web
browsers, databases, mobile phones, printers, XML processors, voice
response...
