XML Basics

Almost everything we do in this book deals with XML documents. XSLT stylesheets are XML documents themselves, and they’re designed to transform an XML document into something else. If you don’t have much experience with XML, we’ll review the basics here. For more information on XML, check out Erik T. Ray’s Learning XML (O’Reilly, 2001) and Elliotte Rusty Harold and W. Scott Means’s XML in a Nutshell (O’Reilly, 2001).
