Abstract

The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a subset of SGML that is completely described in this
document. Its goal is to enable generic SGML to be served, received, and processed on the Web in the
way that is now possible with HTML. XML has been designed for ease of implementation and for
interoperability with both SGML and HTML.
