Best-selling programming author Peter G. Aitken has written two books in one: an outstanding tutorial on XML and related standards, and the world's most comprehensive guide to XML's use with advanced Microsoft technologies. The book begins with a systematic introduction to XML: its key standards and how it may be used to solve a wide range of development and integration problems. Aitken introduces basic XML syntax, data modeling with XDR and XSD schemas, formatting with cascading style sheets; XSL, XSLT, and XSL-FO; XLink and XPointer; DOM, SAX, and SOAP. Once you've gained a solid foundation of knowledge about XML and its key complementary technologies, Aitken shows how Microsoft puts them to work. You'll understand XML's role in .NET and its uses in the new C# language; create XML and XHTML-based Web pages for display in Internet Explorer; leverage XML in the Visual Basic.NET and Visual C++ .NET programming environments; master scripting techniques for Microsoft servers; work with Microsoft's BizTalk Server; and finally, learn how to make the most of Microsoft Office XP's enhanced XML support. For every Web professional and application developer using Microsoft Windows and/or .NET tools and technologies.
