Product Description CodeNotes provides the most succinct, accurate, and speedy way for a developer to ramp up on a new technology or language. Unlike other programming books, CodeNotes drills down to the core aspects of a technology, focusing on the key elements needed in order to understand it quickly and implement it immediately. It is a unique resource for developers, filling the gap between comprehensive manuals and pocket references.
CodeNotes for XML is a practical handbook for Java and Visual Basic developers interested in working with XML. You will learn how to leverage both CSS and XSLT to produce rich, compelling output, as well as manipulate XML using the DOM and SAX APIs. The new XML Schema specification is also covered in-depth. Companion articles on www.codenotes.com cover XML development with Perl, integrating XML with databases, important grammars such as XHTML and SOAP, and much more. CodeNotes for XML is your guide to these powerful technologies, presented within the context of the distributed application, database, or web-based world you already know.
This edition of CodeNotes includes:
-A global overview of a technology and explanation of what problems it can be used to solve
-Real-world examples
-"How and Why" and "Bugs and Caveats" sections that provide hints, tricks, workarounds, and tips on what should be taken advantage of or avoided
-Instructions and classroom-style tutorials throughout from expert trainers and software developers.
Visit www.codenotes.com for updates, source code templates, access to message boards, and discussion of specific problems with CodeNotes authors and other developers.
Every CodeNotes title is written and reviewed by a team of commercial software developers and technology experts. See "About the Authors" for more information.
Featured Customer Reviews  Good Book for a quick start,
March 25, 2008 Blends concepts and code, paper book and online source,
September 13, 2003The use of an 8 character "CodeNote pointer" allows obtaining additional information from the codenotes web site while keeping the book a readable size and price. For example the paper chapter on SAX included examples in Java, but the online "CodeNotes" allows obtaining the source in Visual Basic. In the chapter on installation, I found both the instructions on the book and the online web site out of date, so they might want to update the web. The online notes on Sample architectures was particularly helpful, so don't neglect the section on "additional material" at the front of the book. I would have also liked an actual completed application demonstrated online. great book, great value,
February 12, 2003 This book is probably the best value of any of the technical book I've purchased. At only $..., this book covers all the important aspects of XML in a very understable and enjoyable way. It's laid out well and the examples (and following explanations) are clear and very helpful. If only all technical books could be written this well. And is that the most aesthetically pleasing cover you've ever seen or what?Excellent Resource,
January 19, 2003 This book presents the core of XML in an organized, no-nonsense fashion. If you need to get up to speed quickly on XML this book is a great investment (and quite inexpensive too).Fantastic book,
August 01, 2002 I used this in conjunction with an Infusion class I took and what a great book! fantastic job!
