With the arrival of Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 and its support for XML, more and more Web developers can start relying on XML to deliver content to Web clients. Written for the Web designer or developer, Project Cool Guide to XML for Web Designers presents a remarkably comprehensible explanation of using XML effectively with coverage of all the major related standards.

The best thing about this book is its clear (and notably friendly) style when approaching the difficulties of XML and related acronyms. With simple examples (using food menus and newsletters), it shows how XML is used to structure document content. Perhaps the best section here is the clear explication of DTDs used to define XML documents. Only after XML and DTDs are covered does the book turn to display issues with coverage of CSS and XSL (for defining visual styles for elements) and HTC (for scripting events). Of course, Web programmers might be most interested in HTC, but as the author notes, different players on a Web site's team must work together to use XML effectively.

Another standout section presents interviews with some of the major XML innovators, plus an excellent explanation of how the W3W reviews and approves standards like XML. Of course, XML is still much more difficult to master than HTML. But this book makes a good case that you can start hand-coding XML successfully right now. Project Cool Guide to XML for Web Designers is probably the simplest available choice for learning XML for any Web designer or developer. --Richard Dragan

Topics covered: XML basics, W3W standards review process, DTDs, CSS and XSL.

Note the title: FOR WEB DESIGNERS! 10. M�rz 2000

Von A. Chase

Format:Taschenbuch

Don't be swayed by the negative review up there at the top - If you're a programmer you should probably check out something from O'Reilly, and you should read the name of the book before you buy it. This book is aimed squarely at *web designers* and is intended to be an overview of the subject with just enough technical and spec information to get you started.

I'm halfway through the book, and I highly recommend it for anyone on the web design side of the industry who's interested in XML but not really familiar with what it is or the fundamental roots of HTML.

The book goes over what XML is and what it isn't, how it compares to HTML, how it relates to CSS and XSL, potential applications for XML, DTD's, the W3C recommendation process, and lots of other related information.

I find these many different angles quite helpful, because my perspective is limited by comparison; HTML, JavaScript, and graphics occupy the bulk of my time, and I never would have thought of some of the considerations and advantages of XML brought up in this book.

If you're a web designer, buy this book. If you're a programmer, go look for the O'Reilly book!

Great Non-Tech Resource 29. Februar 2000

Von JK

If you want to know what XML is and does before you dive into its technical end, this is a great book! The author presents this complicated topic in a way that makes it simple and understandable.

Watered Down Information 28. Februar 2000

Von Ein Kunde

Well, I bought this book because by the reviews, people seemed to say that it was the most understandable xml book out there. I now realize the other books are not dificult to understand. Instead, you just have a vast number of people out there who cannot program, and rather than face that reality they have taken to balming the books. If anyone out there is a REAL programmer that needs REAL hardcore information, learn from my mistake. This book is the most understandable because it is apple juice. Anyone with any type of programming aptitude will surely find this book to be frustrating, insulting, and infuriating. I can't believe I paid for this. The auther spends an ENTIRE CHAPTER on what the X the M and the L mean. I was halfway through this book when she finally started to give some syntax. If she had given half as much information on the syntax and real world uses of XML as she did on the meaning of the letter X, this book might have actually been useful. Once again, if you have any intelegence whatsoever, this book will be an insult to you. Buy something else.
