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 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!

    I have seen this on a few sites. They have a panel at the top or buttom that always stays there but

    Is there a way to make use of the keyboard when togging html links? I'm doing a project and it
    would be nice if the user won't be too mouse-dependent. He will have the option of using the
    keyboard as well. I'm thinking if the user does a particular keypress (CTRL + LETTER maybe? )
    the link will be "clicked". This is probably a stupid question but if anyone knows a way it would
    be so fantastic! /cool.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="B)" border="0"

  6. Dynamic Links - (3)
    his may be a CSS question, but it's the XHTML not validating that's giving me a problem.
    I'm working with the most out-dated shopping cart software (Click Cart Pro) ever and I'm
    trying to get it to validate XHTML 1.0 Transitional. All the XHTML I've supplied is good and
    validates fine, but where I'm falling short at the moment is with the linking. ClickCart Pro -
    by default - spits out HTML from 1996, and the links are supplied with ampersands - not the XHTML
    character entity "&". Par l'exemple: Code: CODE <a href="http:...

  8. Update Navigation Links? - (2)
    One of the requirements for the site Im working on right now is to be able to update navigation
    links easily. Its easy to do with frames, which I want to avoid. If I have 8 different pages, and
    add another page or anything, I dont want to have to open 8 pages and make the change to all of
    them. Is there another way, like having some kind of external style sheet, and bieng able to update
    that and have it carry over to all the other pages? As far as I understand, you can only have CSS
    code in a external stylesheet, and all the link infomation is in the actual page itself....

    to select a frameset depending on the variable passed in the link, so it goes: if ($_GET ) {
    else ...and so on. My problem is this - when I use target="result1", a new window opens and loads
    the page the way I want it, but I don't want a new window to open. If i put target="_self",
