Introduction to XML
I completed this class with the HTML Writers Guild. Behind this link is the homework assignments created for the class. You will need a browser that supports XML to view these documents (IE5 or higher).
New Disclaimer: These XML projects (and the ones below) were done back in 2001 when the xmlns was xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl" so they don't parse right now. Soon, I will have time to look at these projects and get them working.
House Listing 1 in XML
This house listing was created using an XML document validated against the Realtors DTD (RELML) and using XSL to transform the XML into HTML on the client. Because this transformation takes place on the client you will need a browser that supports XML to view this document (IE5 or higher).
House Listing 2 in XML
This is another listing that was easily created and transformed because the DTD and XSL were already developed for the first house listing. This is the beauty of standardization, I can apply the same XSL to any listing that is created with the RELML DTD to quickly generate the listings for display. You will need a browser that supports XML to view this document (IE5 or higher).
Dog Pedigree in XML
This is my dog Rummel's pedigree created in XML and transformed using XSL, listing the dogs name and titles won. The pedigree XML document is setup as a datastore. You will need a browser that supports XML to view this document (IE5 or higher).
XML Transformed on the Server
If an XML document is transformed from XML to HTML on the server then anyone can look at the property listing, there is no browser support of XML requirement. Transforming XML to HTML on the server could be done with an ASP file and VB script.
