XML
The purpose of this book is twofold: First to describe what needs to be done to internationalize XML documents and applications; second to describe how the XML data can be localized efficiently. There is currently almost no information on these two topics grouped and organized in a single reference. In addition, while XML has evolved a lot the past 2 years, it has now reached a point of global acceptance, as evidenced by the many international XML working groups addressing trading partner agreements, electronic document exchange, business processes, and eBusiness. Explore the Unicode, L18N, L10N standards as they apply to XML. Learn strategies for dealing with alternate alphabets and text orientations. Improve your XML framework to make it more conductive to fast localization at minimum cost. Synchronize error messages from software resources with XML based online help documents. Master rendering XML documents. Understand XML data exchange.

XML
This issue of the prestigious, quarterly Journal includes reports from the World Wide Web Consortium, which is encouraging adoption of XML as either a replacement or supplement to HTML. Papers range over XML, HTML-math, the document object model, XML and cascading style sheets, a chemical markup language, medical records in XML, and much more. While the articles are technical, they are very clearly written and easy to understand, and this diversity of viewpoints will not be available anywhere else. For all academic collections. With article titles like "The Web Is Ruined and I Ruined It" (a rumination on "HTML terrorism"), Dan Connolly has assembled an amusing and well-paced commentary on XML. XML: Principles, Tools, and Techniques is not strictly a tutorial. However, as Connolly outlines in the introduction, this book attempts to cover "the complete technical specification, primers, implementation case studies, applications, and history.
