• Encode your XML documents in UTF-8 by Elliotte Harold   - [Clicks: 19]
  Unicode is a superset of every other significant computerized character set on earth today. UTF-8 is the proper binary encoding of the Unicode character set. This article makes the case that all XML documents should be generated exclusively in UTF-8. The result is a more robust, more interoperable universe of documents.

• Managing XML Encryption with Java by Jeff Hanson   - [Clicks: 23]
  XML is a text format, and as such, provides no wire security by itself; however, using standard Java encryption techniques, you can transmit and receive XML securely.

• Untangle URIs, URLs, and URNs by Dan Connolly   - [Clicks: 12]
  In information management, persistence and availability are in constant tension. This tension has led to separate technologies for Uniform Resource Names (URNs) and Uniform Resource Locators (URLs). Meanwhile, Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs) are designed to serve as both persistent names and available locations. This article explains how to use the current URI standards with XML technologies, gives a history of URNs and URLs, and provides a perspective on the tension between persistence and availability.

• Working XML: Safe coding practices, Part 1 by Benoit Marchal   - [Clicks: 16]
  Benoit reviewed his project notes and has compiled a list of the most common pitfalls with XML technology. Save yourself a great deal of frustration by watching out for these potential problems in your own projects. In the first article in this series of four, Benoit reviews the hazards of the XML language itself.

• Principles of XML design: When the order of XML elements matters by Uche Ogbuji   - [Clicks: 24]
  When multiple XML elements occur within another element, does element order matter? Whether it's the order in which the parser reports elements to applications, or the question of whether or not to mandate specific order in schema patterns, things are not always as simple as they may seem. In this article, Uche Ogbuji covers design and processing considerations related to the order of XML elements.

• An early look at sXBL by Elliotte Rusty Harold   - [Clicks: 12]
  SVG's XML Binding Language -- sXBL -- is an XML vocabulary being developed at the W3C as a means of mapping XML elements in arbitrary vocabularies to SVG pictures that represent those elements. For example, an XML Metadata Interchange (XMI) document can be turned into SVG code that shows the actual Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagram encoded in the XMI document. But sXBL takes the separation of presentation from content one step further: It is a generic language for rendering documents as arbitrarily complex two-dimensional pictures. This article offers an overview of this emerging and potentially powerful technology.

• Manage XML collections with XAPI by Uche Ogbuji   - [Clicks: 16]
  XML repositories are a simple extension of the idea of XML documents, and they call for a simple API for access and manipulation. The likes of DOM and XPath are too granular, while XQuery may be too elaborate for some needs. A group of XML repository implementers (named XML:DB) have come together to develop such an API specification, and the result is the Application Programming Interface for XML Databases (XAPI). In this article, Uche Ogbuji introduces XAPI.

• XML Security: Manage identities more effectively with SPML by Manish Verma   - [Clicks: 185]
  Gain a basic understanding of what Service Provisioning Markup Language (SPML) is and how it works. After an explanation of SPML's role in the management of the identity lifecycle, this article guides you through an actual working SPML scenario, using OpenSPML. Along the way, the author explains the architecture and design of SPML. Ultimately, you learn to appreciate the usefulness of this technology, and are equipped to participate in the implementation of the standard.

• XHTML, step-by-step by Uche Ogbuji   - [Clicks: 20]
  Get started working with Extensible Hypertext Markup Language. XHTML is a language based on HTML, but expressed in well-formed XML. But XHTML is much more than just regularizing tags and characters -- XHTML can alter the way you approach Web design. This tutorial gives step-by-step instruction for developers familiar with HTML who want to learn how to use XHTML in practical Web sites.

• Use Cascading Stylesheets to display XML, Part 3 by Uche Ogbuji   - [Clicks: 10]
  In parts 1 and 2 of this tutorial series, Uche Ogbuji has shown how to use Cascading Stylesheets (CSS) to display XML in browsers, presenting basic and advanced techniques. Although some people see XSLT and CSS as opposing technologies, they are actually very complementary. CSS cannot, and is not designed to, handle many XML rendering tasks. You can use XSLT for many such tasks, and even manage the CSS that is still used to fine-tune the presentation. This tutorial covers techniques for using XSLT to process XML in association with CSS. Anyone who works with XML should take this tutorial. Even if CSS and XSLT don't cover your needs for production Web publishing, they are great tools for general processing, debugging, and experimentation. They offer rich interaction with other XML technologies and you'll be likely to run into CSS and XSLT even when you lest expect them.

• Use Cascading Stylesheets to display XML, Part 2 by Uche Ogbuji   - [Clicks: 12]
  In a previous tutorial, Uche Ogbuji showed how to use Cascading Stylesheets (CSS) to display XML in browsers, presenting basic techniques. However, as anyone who has tried to master CSS even in the world of HTML and JavaScript can attest, there are numerous tricks, traps and nuances. The same is true when using CSS with XML. This tutorial builds on the basics in the earlier one to cover such intermediate and advanced topics.
