XML in Netscape and in Explorer

In our XML tutorial we have focused on Internet Explorer 5.0 and higher.

XML on this Web Site

Many applications support XML. We are focusing on Internet Explorer 5.0 and higher. 

Some of you have complained about this, but we think this is the most practical way to demonstrate real XML examples for you over the Internet.

XML in Netscape 6

Netscape 6 supports XML.

To look at the XML source in Netscape 6; right-click on the page and select "View Page Source".

XML in Internet Explorer 5.0

Internet Explorer 5.0 supports the XML 1.0 standard.

Internet Explorer 5.0 supports most of the international standards for XML 1.0 and the XML DOM (Document Object Model). These standards are set by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).

Internet Explorer 5.0 has the following XML support:

• Viewing of XML documents
• Full support for W3C DTD standards
• XML embedded in HTML as Data Islands
• Binding XML data to HTML elements
• Transforming and displaying XML with XSL
• Displaying XML with CSS
• Access to the XML DOM

Internet Explorer 5.0 also has support for Behaviors:

• Behaviors is a Microsoft-only technology  
• Behaviors can separate scripts from an HTML page.
• Behaviors can store XML data on the clients disk.

Examples of all these features are given in the next chapters of this web site.

You can read more about Internet Explorer, and download the latest version at W3Schools' Browser Information.
