This book gives as complete a picture of XML and ASP.NET as possible without trading a book's bulk for its content. We discuss XML from a basic level and quickly move to an advanced discussion on its implementation and the formal recommendations.
Many topics are covered throughout this book, including the following:
The XML 1.0 Recommendation
The XML Schema 1.0 Recommendation
The XPath 1.0 Recommendation
Changes to ASP.NET
The XSLT 1.0 Recommendation
Using XML with ADO.NET
Creating and manipulating XML documents using the .NET Framework classes
Whitespace handling in XML
Validating XML documents
Using Visual Studio .NET to work with XML
Using and controlling XML serialization
Other available tools and utilities to work with XML
Creating and consuming XML Web Services
WAP and WML programming
Microsoft has done a great job of including volumes of information on XML in MSDN, and there is plenty of information to sort through on the web as well. We make specific references to documentation, sites, and other books and magazines throughout this book. Rather than list different websites in this section, we suggest you visit www.newriders.com and www.xmlandasp.net for updated articles, code listings, and links to more information.
