XML (Extended Markup Language) was developed by W3.Org and released in the late 1990's. XML is a meta-based language for describing data and creating markup languages. Individual pieces of data go into "tags". An XML document is text-based and is made up of XML tags. XML is portable and is used for cross-platform data communication on the Web. XML is the language for information interchange. XML provides the foundation for many Web Services standards. VoiceXML converts an XML document into sound so that you can listen to an XML document. Some applications send XML documents to cell phones. XML is the vehicle that allows data to be shared by dissimilar applications on varying platforms as XML is used for describing and structuring data independent from the application logic. XSL is the language for expressing stylesheets. XSL transforms XML documents and specifies formatting semantics. W3c.org has more information about the XML, XSL, XSLT, SVG technologies.
