XML stands for Extensible Markup Language. It is a text-based markup language derived from Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML).

XML tags identify the data and are used to store and organize the data, rather than specifying how to display it like HTML tags, which are used to display the data. XML is not going to replace HTML in the near future, but it introduces new possibilities by adopting many successful features of HTML.

XML is a markup language that was developed as a way to store and organize data. It is extensible, which means that new tags can be added to it as needed.

XML tags are used to identify the data in the document and they are not visible on the page. They are used within HTML tags, which means they can be seen by web browsers and other programs that read HTML files.

There are three important characteristics of XML that make it useful in a variety of systems and solutions:

  • XML is extensible: XML allows you to create your own self-descriptive tags or language, that suits your application.
  • XML carries the data, does not present it: XML allows you to store the data irrespective of how it will be presented.
  • XML is a public standard: XML was developed by an organization called the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and is available as an open standard.

XML Usage A short list of XML usage says it all:

  • XML can work behind the scene to simplify the creation of HTML documents for large web sites.
  • XML can be used to exchange the information between organizations and systems.
  • XML can be used for offloading and reloading of databases.
  • XML can be used to store and arrange the data, which can customize your data handling needs.
  • XML can easily be merged with style sheets to create almost any desired output.
  • Virtually, any type of data can be expressed as an XML document

What is Markup?

XML is a markup language that defines set of rules for encoding documents in a format that is both human-readable and machine-readable. So, what exactly is a markup language? Markup is information added to a document that enhances its meaning in certain ways, in that it identifies the parts and how they relate to each other. More specifically, a markup language is a set of symbols that can be placed in the text of a document to demarcate and label the parts of that document.
