====== XML ======

This lecture covers XML and the host of technologies associated with it. Using XML tools you should be able to access an XML document, ensure it is well-formed and valid, process it, modify it, and then save it as a new XML document.


===== Outline =====

  * What is XML
  * Namespaces and Entities
  * Well-formed versus Valid
  * Creating an XML Schema
  * XML Parsers: SAX and DOM
  * Transforming XML


===== To Do =====

  * Read Chapter 7 up to Section 7.8 
  * Read Section 9.5
  * Look at ''Card*.xml/xsd'' files in the //Resource Directory// as processed by the Java programs ''DOM'', ''Validate'', ''Modify'', and ''SAX''. The ''Tranform'' programs show how it is trivial to save a modified document back to XML.
