This time we will explain to you a little bit about Extensible Markup Language(XML).
XML was designed to describe data and focus what data is. XML also is a markup language much like HTML. For your information, XML is just a plain text and nothing special. Software that can handle plain text can also handle XML.The important thing you need to know about XML is that XML is NOT a replacement for HTML.
These are some advantages of XML:
- XML simplifes data sharing
- XML simplifies data transport
- XML makes your data more available
- XML is used to create new internet language
simple XML coding |
From the "simple XML coding" the <recipe> is the root element of the document and from the '<title>' until </preparation> are the child elements. Finally, the </recipe > defines the end of the documents. Root elements and child elements must be in the XML coding.
Maybe some of the readers curious about the differences between XML and HTML.
So, I will give you some of differences.
Types | XML | HTML |
---|---|---|
Goals | transport and store data, with focus on what data is | display data, with focus on how data looks |
Function | carrying information | displaying information |
I hope all of you enjoy read this brief explanation about XML. Goodluck!!
