    Need some information on XML

    Hi,
    I am going for a course of XML. As a newbie I need some information on XML and on its implementation. I am aware that XML is a much advance language used for online support than HTML. Second thing what are the main uses of this language. Is it is used for a specific purpose only. And the third thing I want to know that how XML works and who decides about the related languages. Thanks in advance.

    XML stands for extensible markup language. It is the standard defined by the W3C for representing information in documents marked. Mark up language is also known as HTML. Extensible in contrast to HTML, the number, name and position tags are not predefined. The semantics of a tag is defined by the author of the XML document. XML is itself derived from SGML, a metalanguage international standard.
