QUOTE(round @ Mar 1 2005, 07:18 PM) I need to learn xml and would like links or anything on the subject. I've looked at some code and i still don't see the point to it at all. Try http://www.w3schools.com/xml/default.asp Please note that XML isn't code. XML, like HTML is a markup language. A language to describe content.
If you need anything quick I would say give w3schools a shot, or the almighty GOOGLE never fails.
I just thought someone would know a link to site which has the info, so i can look up some stuff. I bought a book on it, seems really silly and i'm still not sure why anyone would use this stuff.

At the end XML is in different layer as HTML. XML is a language to describe new Markup Languages while HTML is a markup language with a limited number of tags. So, something like SGML but with 200 pages less of specification.
There are three principal ways of creating layout for XML: - With CSS (Would be the easiest way but it not supported by all the browsers and there is not a good way to represent links) - XSLT transform XML to the data type you want. Lets say PDF or XHTML - XFO Thats i do not know a lot but it is something with formating objects. So as you can see there are plenty way applications where XML makes a lot of sense.
It's a transparant, human-readable way for distributing text among different applications.
Why do you need to learn it? Perhaps looking at what you have to use it for and comparing it to other possible solutions could give you an idea as to its advantages (and disadvantages)?
why don't you try W3C? http://www.w3.org/XML/
there, you can find an intro to XML, as well as the specifications and other resources. it's easy to understand, and you may also want some info about XHTML, which is well-structured tags HTML version.
I need it for work, but the link to site was perfect thanks. It's great, everythings there.

I would say to go to www.xml.com. This site contains hundreds of pages on xml, xslt, rss feeds, and web services. Here is a page about xml that tells what xml is, how it is related to SGML (Stanardized General Markup Language), and HTML. http://www.xml.com/pub/a/98/10/guide0.html
Hope that helps you some!
