Abstract: |
This is one
of the most actively growing sections of our curriculum. You can expect to see several new courses
in this section over the next few weeks. Popular myth
holds that XML is a replacement, an improved version of HTML. The myth is
wrong. XML is much more powerful than the myth would have us believe. HTML is a display technology. XML is a data sharing technology. Both
technologies use tags inside of angle brackets. Both technologies trace their roots to SGML. But that is where the similarities end. XML is a
powerful generic language for data interchange. It is the language that
enables disparate computer systems to exchange data. It doesn’t matter if the
two computers use different operating systems or if the applications running
on the different computers are unrelated. XML is very useful for
Business-to-Business data sharing. Our course
offerings start with a five day Introduction to XML If you cannot get that
much time off from work, try our three evening or one day Saturday special We offer
traditional classroom training as well as reduced rate Bring Your Own
Computer Sales for students who have their own properly configured computers. |
