  18. GROUP DISCUSSION WHATTO DO?

  19. What is XML? • eXtensible Markup Language, is a specification for creating custom markup languages • W3C Recommendation • Primary purpose is to help computers to share data • XML is meta-language. This means that you use it for creating languages. • XML is an extensive concept.

  20. XML Document • Every XML-document is text-based • => sharing data between different computers! • => sharing data in Internet! • => platform independence!

  21. Binary vs. Text • Problems with Binary format • Platform depence • Firewalls • Hard to debug • Inspecting the file can be hard • Since XML is text-based, it does not have the problems mentioned above. • What are the disadvantages in text format?

  22. XML Doc Advantages • Easy data sharing, text documents are readable between any device. • Documents can be modified with any text editor. • Possible to understand the contents of the xml-document just by looking at it with text editor. • Easy to manipulate via programming languages • Two levels of correctness: Well formed and Valid.

  23. .doc – file format Mac OS X Since .doc is closed binary-format, there are very few alternatives for word processors that fully support the doc – file format Windows MS Word 2000 0101011010101010001010 1010101110101010001011 1010101110101010110101 1110101010101010101010

  24. .docx – file format (Office Open XML) Mac OS X Hopefully in the future there will be loads of free programs that support this new open and easy access file format Windows MS Word 2007 <xml> <heading1>title</heading1> . . </xml> Now the format is open and it's much easier to access

  25. SGML vs. XML SGML: Standard Generalized Markup Language XML OOXML (.docx) MathML (.mml) XHTML (.xhtml) HTML (.html)

  26. XML – Meta Language • XML is meta language, which you can use to create your own markup languages. • There are several XML Markup Languages made for different purposes • All the languages have common xml-rules • Languages: XHTML, OOXML, Open Document, RSS, SVG, SOAP, SMIL, MathML... • List: • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_XML_markup_languages

  27. XHTML - Example <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <title>Minimal XHTML 1.0 Document</title> </head> <body> <p>This is a minimal <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/">XHTML 1.0</a> document.</p> </body> </html>

  28. SVG - Example <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd"> <svg width="100%" height="100%" version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <circle cx="100" cy="50" r="40" stroke="black" stroke-width="2" fill="red"/> </svg>

  29. MathML (Open Office) <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE math:math PUBLIC "-//OpenOffice.org//DTD Modified W3C MathML 1.01//EN" "math.dtd"> <math:math xmlns:math="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <math:semantics> <math:mrow> <math:mi>x</math:mi> <math:mo math:stretchy="false">=</math:mo> <math:mfrac> <math:mrow> ... </math:mrow> <math:annotation math:encoding="StarMath 5.0">x = {-b +-sqrt{b^{2}-4{ac}} } over {2 {a}} </math:annotation> </math:semantics> </math:math>

RSS 2.0 - Example <?xml version="1.0"?> <rss version="2.0"> <channel> <title>W3Schools Home Page</title> <link>http://www.w3schools.com</link> <description>Free web building tutorials</description> <item> <title>RSS Tutorial</title> <link>http://www.w3schools.com/rss</link> <description>New RSS tutorial on W3Schools</description> </item> <item> <title>XML Tutorial</title> <link>http://www.w3schools.com/xml</link> <description>New XML tutorial on W3Schools</description> </item> </channel> </rss>

  31. XML Editors • XML Spy • EditiX • Microsoft XML Notepad • Visual XML • XML Viewer • Xeena • XML Styler, Morphon, XML Writer…

  32. Rules that Apply to Every XML-Document WELL FORMED XML - DOCUMENT

  33. Correctness • There are two levels of correctness of an XML document: • Well-formed. A well-formed document conforms to all of XML's syntax rules. • Valid. A valid document additionally conforms to some semantic rules. • Let's first look at the XML's syntax rules (1).

  34. Simple Generic XML Example <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?> <presentation> <slide number="1"> <name>Introduction to XML</name> <contents>XML is ...</contents> </slide> </presentation>

  35. XML-Declaration • XML-declaration is optional in XML 1.0, mandatory in 1.1. • Recommendation: use it. • Version: 1.0 or 1.1 • Encoding: character encoding, default utf-8 • Standalone: • is the xml-document linked to external markup declaration • yes: no external markup declarations • no: can have external markup declaration (open issue..) • default: "no"

  36. Comparing Declarations <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?> <presentation> <slide> <name>Introduction to XML</name> <contents>XML is ...</contents> </slide> </presentation> <?xml version="1.0"?> <presentation> <slide> <name>Introduction to XML</name> <contents>XML is ...</contents> </slide> </presentation> Same Declaration

  37. Element vs. Tag vs. Attribute • Element consists of start tag, optional content and an end tag: • <name>Introduction to XML</name> • Start tag • <name> • Content • Introduction to XML • End tag • </name> • Start tag may have attribute • <slide number="1">

  38. Rules about Elements • Only one root - element • Every element contains starting tag and an ending tag • Content is optional: Empty element • <x></x> <!-- same as --> • <x/> • Tag – names are case-sensitive: • <X></x> <!-- Error --> • Elements must be ended with the end tag in correct order: • <p><i>problem here</p></i> <!– Error 

  39. Rules about Attributes • XML elements can have attributes in the start tag. • Attributes must be quoted: • <person sex="female"> • <person sex='female'> • <gangster name='George "Shotgun" Ziegler'> • <gangster name="George &quot;Shotgun&quot; Ziegler">

  40. Naming Tags • Names can contain letters, numbers, and other characters • Names must not start with a number or punctuation character • Names must not start with the letters xml (or XML, or Xml, etc) • Names cannot contain spaces

  41. Well-Formed XML • XML document is well-formed if it follows the syntax rules. • XML document must be well-formed! • it's not an xml-document, if it does not follow the rules..

  42. Is this Well-Formed XML Document? <?xml version="1.0"?> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <title>Minimal XHTML 1.0 Document</title> </head> <body> <p>This is a minimal <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/">XHTML 1.0</a> document.</p> </body> </html>

  43. Is this Well-Formed XML Document? <?xml version="1.0"?> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <title>Minimal XHTML 1.0 Document</title> </head> <body> <jorma>This is a minimal <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/">XHTML 1.0</a> document.</jorma> </body> </html>

  44. Defining the Structure for XML documents VALID XML DOCUMENT

  45. Valid XML • XML document is valid if • 1) It is well formed AND • 2) It follows some semantic rules • XML document is usually linked to an external file, that has semantic rules for the document. • The file can be dtd (.dtd) or schema (.xsd) • Semantic rules? • Name of tags, order of elements

  46. DTD Linking Rules for XHTML elements (order, names, etc) <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <title>Minimal XHTML 1.0 Document</title> </head> <body> <p>This is a minimal <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/">XHTML 1.0</a> document.</p> </body> </html>

  47. DTD Linking Defines the structure, tag names and order for all xhtml - documents W3C has created XML-language "XHTML" by defining it's rules in DTD.

  48. Is this valid XML Document? <?xml version="1.0"?> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <title>Minimal XHTML 1.0 Document</title> </head> <body> <jorma>This is a minimal <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/">XHTML 1.0</a> document.</jorma> </body> </html> • There is no DTD! What language is this? MathML? SVG? XHTML? • Assuming this is XHTML, what version of XHTML? Transitional? Strict? • Assuming this is XHTML strict, does "jorma" – tag belong to XHTML Language?

  49. Invalid XHTML-document <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <title>Minimal XHTML 1.0 Document</title> </head> <body> <jorma>This is a minimal <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/">XHTML 1.0</a> document.</jorma> </body> </html>
