Reviews for Learning XML

This book lacks a practical step-by-step approach.
Rated out of 5 stars, September 12st, 2001
This book does not lead you through XML in a practical way. XML can be a difficult technology to get your head around - this book does not present the subject in such a way that lets you try examples and then move on. It will probably sell because its an O'Reilly title; however I'm used to more real world material from them. -
Interesting book, on an exciting topic
Rated out of 5 stars, March 12th, 2001
This is another fine book in the ORA tradition. The book does not try to be a vast reference guide, but a compact introduction to all the major topics. As such it's an excellent introduction to the topic, and well worth reading.Like other ORA "Learning" books that I have read it does at times labour points, and have too much redundant code, both excluding this, it's a worth while book.
Once you have learnt XML you are probably not going to use this book as a reference books, as it is not appendix rich, but while you are learning it's very good.
