2.0 out of 5 stars Good starting place for xml., Aug 13 2008

By D. Logan "Cos McKidd" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: XML: Your visual blueprint for building expert websites with XML, CSS, XHTML, and XSLT (Paperback)

This book presents some good, simple information. The screen shots are nice except they are hard to read if you want to try to recreate them on your own. My biggest objection to the book is its use of XMLSpy as an application of creating the XML. XMLSpy, as the book indicates, is very expensive and not at all necessary for successfully completing an exercise in xml. This is particularly true for such an elementary book as this.
