    • You learn about the critical role of software called a parser, that monitors the tags you write to make sure they are correct, then checks the structure of your document, to make sure it matches a standard defined in a Document Type Definition or Schema.

    • Then you create all parts of an XML document, learning how to start and end a tag, how to write the names correctly, how to enter values, and, where to put the actual content. In frequent short exercises, you learn how to create all the components of an XML document—a prolog, with an XML declaration, comments, and processing instructions, and a body with elements, attributes, entity references.

    • And you learn how to follow the standard structure with your tags, to make sure that your document can be validated by the parser.

    • Note that this course does not espouse any particular software tool, and does not go into creating a Document Type Definition, Schema, or Namespaces. You do not need to know HTML, although some familiarity with it could be helpful. You do not need any special software, other than a word processor, and a browser, with an Internet connection.
