Explore XML, the Extensible Markup Language, a tag-based standard that structures and describes information and underpins XHTML, CSS, RSS, Atom, Ajax, and web services.
Explore how XML namespaces prevent tag name collisions when combining HTML data with custom tag sets by using xmlns definitions, default namespaces, and prefixes.
Link an external CSS file to an XML document to apply styling, and define display, font family, size, and color.
Associate a CSS stylesheet with an XML document to style a business card, defining CSS for name, phone, and email tags with color, bold font weight, and block display.
Explore XPath, the W3C standard for querying XML data, using path notation to extract nodes, attributes, and text with predicates and location steps; learn through practical examples and hands-on practice.
Apply XPath on XML data in VS Code with the XML developer plugin to select name and phone text, using text(), contains, and predicates with attribute filters such as type.
Explore common XSLT elements such as template, match, value, for-each, if, choose, and sort, and learn how to transform XML into HTML or other formats using a stylesheet.

XML (eXtensible Markup Language) is a markup language used to store and transport data in a structured, readable format. Unlike HTML, which defines how data is displayed, XML focuses on describing the data itself.
Are you ready to master one of the most important data structuring languages in the tech world? This comprehensive course is designed to teach you everything you need to know about XML—from the very basics to more advanced concepts. Whether you’re a beginner with no prior knowledge or a developer looking to refresh your skills, this course provides a solid foundation in XML and prepares you to use it confidently in real-world projects.
You’ll start by understanding what XML is and why it’s widely used in web development, APIs, data exchange, and configuration files. Step by step, you’ll learn how to write well-formed XML documents, use elements and attributes correctly, and apply proper syntax to structure your data.
You’ll also explore key concepts like DTD and XML Schema (XSD) for validation, ensuring your XML files are both accurate and reliable.
As you progress, you’ll dive into practical topics like parsing XML using popular programming languages, working with XPath to query XML data, and transforming XML with XSLT.
Real-life examples and hands-on exercises will help reinforce your learning and show you how XML is used in software development, web applications, and enterprise systems.
By the end of the course, you’ll not only understand how XML works but also how to apply it to solve data management challenges in a variety of tech environments.
This course is packed with tips, demonstrations, and downloadable resources to make your learning experience both practical and engaging.
