Hi,
Can anyone suggest me a good XML book at beginner level. I won't say I am a absolute novice with XML, but I have gained knowledge of XML from need to know basis.
I am looking for a book which explains more of "Why" then "How". At present I have a copy of "Beginning XML" 2nd edition but reading this book is not a pleasant experience as it is too wordy, sometimes confusing and have a bad flow.
Thanks,
Ayondeep
P.S. Some one was suggesting me "Learning XML" from O' Reilly. I haven't
looked at it.Any comments on this book is welcome.

Hi,
XML in a nutshell is not bad, detailed stuff on the XML syntax,
while JAVA & XML by Brett McLaughlin is good for beginning processing
XML docs with SX/DOM/JDOM etc.
Ive read one chapter on schemas from the "XML Bible", it is easy to follow
so that could be a good one as well (I think there are 13 authors so all
chapters may not be of the same style or quality as the one I read though
........)
Cheers
/Tom

Elliot Rusty Harold's _Processing XML with Java_ is a monster of over 1000 pages but it has to be to cover the topic. Here is the online version.
