Résumé
The Extensible Markup Language (XML) has emerged in just a
few short years as nothing less than a phenomenon in
computing. It is a concept elegant in its simplicity
driving dramatic changes in the way Internet applications
are written. Its key feature is its extensibility, allowing
the user to create his own tags, to define what something
is - rather than simply what it looks like.
HTML is the display-only markup language behind the vast
majority of web pages.
XHTML follows in the footsteps of HTML, combining the
benefits of its easy to understand vocabulary with the
versatile syntax of XML to create an Extensible HTML, which
will be easily accessible not only by today's desktop
browsers, but by other equipment - such as cell phones -
without the processing power to interpret the now lenient
rules of HTML.
Beginning XHTML covers the concepts behind this marriage,
providing the novice web programmer with a thorough and
comprehensive guide to this next generation markup
language. Through its hands-on practical approach, learn
how to build interactive web pages using XHTML, whilst
getting the lowdown on the technologies behind the
language.
This book contains complete working examples with a full
reference section at the end to provide a desktop guide for
use long after the tutorial.
This book is for anyone with a little experience in HTML,
or programmers who wish to make a start in web programming
- and would like to start with XHTML. All in all, it's for
anyone who would like to learn how to write exciting and
dynamic web pages.

L'auteur - Frank Boumphrey
currently works for Cormorant Consulting, a firm that
specializes in medical and legal documentation.
He started programming in the dark ages of punch cards and
machine language. One of his first projects was to help
write a program that differentiated between an incoming
Soviet ICBM and a flock of geese. The fact that we are
reading this is evidence that it probably worked!
Semi-retirement returned him to his first interest of
computing and now he tries to get medical institutions to
organize their medical records in a semi rational fashion,
and on the side lectures to medical personal and healthcare
executives on documentation issues.
His main objective at the present is to help XML to become the language of choice in web documents.
