XML : BooksXML in Flash
XML in Flash is an excellent introduction to creating state-of-the-art Flash applications with XML. XML is quickly becoming the most popular way to store and manage data. Flash's XML Socket makes it possible to network Flash front-ends to an application server. This allows developers to use a Flash interface for applications such as message boards, real-time chats, surveys, news feeds, and games.XML in Flash begins by illustrating the basics of XML and the Flash XML Object. In Part I, Flash is used as a teaching aid as you learn the basics of Flash/XML integration. Part II covers how Flash works with middleware languages, such as PHP and ASP, as well as performance and optimization. You will also create a Flash message board with a database. Part III delves into the advantages of XMLSocket. Hands-on projects include creating a stock market ticker to receive XML data from servers. Finally, the appendixes include invaluable reference information.

XML In Record Time
XML in Record Time offers a comprehensive look at the Extensible Markup Language (XML) and provides rather lengthy coverage of HTML as well. Author Natanya Pitts uses several chapters of this book to lay a foundation of HTML knowledge and then builds upon it with the ins and outs of XML. After covering the basics of markup languages, Pitts presents XML document-type definitions (DTDs) and XML documents in the broad context of hypertext documents. The book then moves into the more detailed aspects of XML with in-depth discussion of DTDs and content models. The author describes the various entities and introduces you to XLink and XPointer -- specifications governing XML links. Next the author presents XML processors, cascading style sheets (CSS), conversions from HTML to XML, and a look at the present landscape of XML tools and client support. Then it's on to the topic of building XML applications and working with XML vocabularies.

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 you to define new document types and stylesheets as needed. Although the generic tags of HTML are sufficient for everyday text, XML gives you a way to add rich, well-defined markup to electronic documents. The XML Pocket Reference, 2nd Edition, is both a handy introduction to XML terminology and syntax, and a quick reference to XML instructions, attributes, entities, and datatypes. Although XML itself is complex, its basic concepts are simple. This small book combines a perfect tutorial for learning the basics of XML with a reference to the XML and XSL specifications. The new edition introduces information on XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) and Xpath. Syntax and usage reference to XML, DTD, XSL, XLink, XPointer.

XML Schemas
XML Schemas introduces you to this elegant new technology, which brings the power of data modeling and data structuring to XML. A truly practical book has to give you more than just the details on syntax and semantics, examples of constructs and datatypes, and instruction in standard procedures. You get all that, but you'll also find lots of expert tips and techniques for document modeling, all reinforced with practical, real-world examples. Even as you're discovering the advantages of XML Schema, you'll learn about the continuing use of DTDs. In some situations when designing document oriented XML, DTDs might still be the way to go. You'll learn about visual XML Schema tools, but you'll also see how setting out armed with just a text editor gives you insights you might not acquire otherwise. It won't be long before you're developing your own XML Schema documents, using the power of XML to structure data for seamless, cross-platform exchange.

Ajax Training
Ajax (Asynchronous Java and XML) has emerged as a powerful platform for building web applications with extensive client-side interactivity. Unlike older approaches, which require reloading of the entire page with every postback, Ajax uses the JavaScript DOM, the XMLHttpRequest object, XML, and CSS to download and display just the content that needs to change. All Accelebrate courses are taught exclusively on-site at their clients' locations worldwide for groups of 3 or more attendees and are customized to their specific needs. All attendees should be fluent in HTML and CSS, and have extensive experience with JavaScript. Prior experience with XSL is not presumed. Training includes: The four defining principles of Ajax; Ajax rich clients in the real world; The key elements of Ajax; Loading data asynchronously using XML technologies; Third-party libraries and frameworks; Working with the server side; Security and performance with Ajax.
