From The Publisher
The complete quick-reference to XML -- and its most important related technologies.

XML, SOAP, XML Schema, XPath, and XSLT -- all in one example-rich quick-reference.
Triple the coverage of its nearest competitor -- including up-to-the-minute information on BizTalk, schemas, and namespaces.
By two respected leaders in the XML community, DevelopMentor's Aaron Skonnard and Martin Gudgin.

XML and the technologies surrounding it have grown immensely in recent years -- in both use and complexity. There's more to know than any one individual can possibly remember. In Essential XML Quick Reference, two leading XML experts present an authoritative reference that covers all the XML-related technologies that matter. In one concise, accessible, example-rich guide, Aaron Skonnard and Martin Gudgin bring together critical information about XML, XSL, XSLT, schemas, namespaces, XPath, SAX, DOM, SOAP, even Microsoft's BizTalk. Following the hugely successful format pioneered by Patrick Chan's Java Almanacs, the authors provide a complete catalog of syntax references, combined with brief, to-the-point overviews of each technology and standard. This ultimate XML reference contains three times the coverage of its nearest competitor. For all developers and Web professionals familiar with the basics of XML.

Foreword
This book is for anyone working with today's mainstream XML technologies. It was specifically designed to serve as a handy but thorough quick reference that answers the most common XML-related technical questions.

It goes beyond the traditional pocket reference design by providing complete coverage of each topic along with plenty of meaningful examples. Each chapter provides a brief introduction, which is followed by the detailed reference information. This approach assumes the reader has a basic understanding of the given topic.

The detailed outline (at the beginning), index (in the back), bleeding tabs (along the side), and the page headers/footers were designed to help readers quickly find answers to their questions.
