XML for Web Developers

The developer should be familiar with the host environment - either Windows NT/2000, Windows 95/98 or Windows XP. Knowledge of any programming language would be advantageous, however it is not essential. Knowledge of HTML and JavaScript is beneficial. This can be gained by attending course EC11.

Practical sessions make up a large part of the course, allowing delegates to demonstrate and reinforce the lectures given. During these sessions the delegate will gain experience of coding all types of XML documents and XML syntax as well as validating against existing XML processors and validators. Examples are used extensively, ranging from simple code snippets to full applications with complete 'real world' functionality. These are supplied at the start of the course and it is encouraged that the delegates execute and 'experiment' with these under the instructor's guidance as they are introduced. These examples are available to take away, along with the delegate's own work. The comprehensive Student Guide supplied is fully indexed serving as a useful reference tool long after the course has finished. Delegates will also be able to access a free help-line with technical questions relating to topics covered on the course.

The course includes the following modules:

• XML introduction


• XML documents


• XML syntax


• Namespaces


• XML grammars
• Document Type Definition (DTD)


• XML schemas


• XML on the web


• XML document presentation
• CSS style sheets
