designing XML

Hello there….back again with today’s assignment of Extensible Markup Language(XML)...

XML  was designated to describe data and focus on what data is. It is much similar to HTML actually but is definitely not a replacement of HTML.

Goals of XML:

-to transport and store data, with focus on what data is

-to display data with focus on how data looks

Comparison between HTML and XML:

HTML is about displaying information while XML is about carrying information..
