Press Release Summary: The most significant difference between HTML and XML is that
HTML has predefined elements and attributes whose behavior is well specified, while
XML does not. Instead, document authors can create their own XML words that are
specific to their application or business needs.

Press Release Body: XML is a meta-language optimized for use on the Internet. A
meta-language provides a way to create other languages or vocabularies. Many
applications use XML as a way of sharing data between otherwise incompatible
systems.

The Extensible Markup Language (XML) was initially visualized as a language for
defining new document formats for the World Wide Web. And can be careful to be a
meta-language: a language for important markup languages. XML is text-based formats
that provide mechanisms for describing document structures using markup tags.

What is XML?

XML stands for Extensible Markup Language
XML is a markup language much like HTML
XML was designed to carry data,
XML tags are not predefined.
XML is designed to be self-descriptive.
XML is a W3C Recommendation

What is HTML?

HTML - short for Hypertext Markup Language is the predominant markup language for
the creation of web pages. It provides a means to describe the structure of
text-based information in a document by denoting certain text as headings,
paragraphs, lists, and to supplement that text with interactive forms, embedded
images, and other objects.

Publish online documents with headings, text, tables, lists, photos,
Retrieve online information via hypertext links, at the click of a button.
Design forms for conducting transactions with remote services, for use in
searching for information, making reservations, ordering products
Include spread-sheets, video clips, sound clips, and other applications directly
in their documents.

The Difference between XML and HTML

Web developers may notice some difference between HTML and XML, which is due to the
fact that they are both derived from XML document is provided or displayed, enables
document authors to focus on creating documents that contain only relevant semantic
information for their particular problem domain. This is a gentle introduction to
XML and using XML with Java. We see what makes XML tick and the advantages of XML.
Also we have programs to show how to use Excess parser for parsing and printing an
XML document, to generate XML from subjective data.

The most significant difference between HTML and XML is that HTML has predefined
elements and attributes whose behavior is well specified, while XML does not.
Instead, document authors can create their own XML words that are specific to their
application or business needs. XML vocabularies currently exist for a large number
of industries and applications from financial filings.

Another difference between HTML and XML is that XML introduces the concept of
regular ness. The regular ness rules of XML remove some of ambiguity inherent in
processing markup languages like HTML by enforcing rules such as mandating that all
attribute values must be in quotes.

Contact Details: XML is more than html because html only deals with presentation and
carries no in order about the data itself. Besides being able to represent both
structured and semi-structured data, these programs have been intentionally kept
small to get the point across.
