Question 3. Compare XML with similar type of other languages.
Answer:

1. Comparing XML and SGML

XML	SGML
XML is a markup language.	SGML is a meta language used to define and describe generic markup language.
It does not include complex and optional features of SGML.	It is complex and requires overheads to use it.
XML allows creation of new  tags to describe and present  your data.	It is an ISO standard for specifying a set of tags,
XML allows data validation.	SGML does not allow data validation.
It describes the data and transfers data between applications.	It allows you to define and create platform-independent files.

2. Comparing HTML and XML

HTML	XML
HTML tags are predefined.	XML tags are not predefined.
HTML is case insensitive.	XML is case sensitive.
HTML is markup language that creates the form and appearance of the Web page.	XML is neither a programming nor a presentation language.

3. Comparing EDI and XML

EDI	XML
EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) is a collection of standards, formats and file layout.	XML is an emerging standard designed to simplify Web-based E-Commerce transactions between computer application.
EDI enables highly secure document exchanges.	XML document typically needs to be encrypted to maintain security level.
EDI documents are sent via private and relatively expensive Value Added Networks (VANs).	XML documents are generally sent via the Internet.
EDI does not processes low transaction values.	XML processes relatively low transaction values.
EDI allows companies to exchange electronic documents quickly between their trading partners.	XML allows you to create custom tags to present your document in a structured format.

Question 4. Consider the following XML document.
Check this for well- formedness.

 Ambrish
 Kumar

 Garg 

Answer:

The above XML document is not well-formed.
The document suffers from two errors which are as follows:

1. Improper nesting The MiddleName element is opened inside the FirstName element, yet MiddleName is not closed before the FirstName element is closed.
2. Mismatched cases of start and end tags The tag is closed with , which is incorrect. XML is case sensitive, thus the end tag of should be .

Question 5. Explain the structure of XML document.
Answer: Structure of XML- File/Document
Every XML document includes both physical and logical structure which are as follows:

1. Physical Structure
It contains the actual data used in a document. The basic storage unit called entity, each of which may refer to other entities. An entity has a name and content. It contains references to other entities. There is a special entity called document entity or root, that serves as a main storage unit. XML processor always start document processing from that unit.
We have three classifications of entities, these are as follows:

1. Internal and External Entities
   For internal entity, there is no separate physical storage object and the content of the entity is given in the declaration. It contained inside the document. If the entity is not internal, then it is an external entity.
2. General and Parameter Entities
   General entities are entities which are used within the document content. In this specification, general entities are sometimes referred to with the unqualified entity, when this leads to no ambiguity. Generally, entities are declared and used differently. Parameter entities are parsed and used only in the DTD part of the XML document.
3. Parsed and Unparsed Entities
   Parsed entities contain text that is referred as replacement text intended to be processed by the parser and is considered as an integral part of the document. Unparsed entities are resources that can be of any type including text objects. This type of entity is never process by parser.

2. Logical Structure
It is a template that enables the elements to be included in a document and in the order in which they have to be included.
The logical structure includes the basic components of the XML document. It indicates how a document is built, irrespective of what a document contains. The first structural element is prolog which is the base for the logical structure.
The structure of the document of example code:

Question 6. A well-formed document must have a root element. Explain with an example.
Answer: To create a well-formed XML document, it is necessary for it to have a root element. A root element is a unique element that contains all other elements in the XML document.
The XML document cannot contain more than one root element.
The following code is an example of a well-formed document:

 Delhi 
 Delhi 
 India 

Consider the same code written in the following way: 
 Delhi 
 Delhi 
 India 
The preceding code is not a well-formed document, since it does not contain a root element.

Question 7. Explain the difference between a well-formed and a valid XML documents. CBSE 2011
Answer:

1. Well-Formed XML Documents
A “Well-Formed” XML document means that document has the correct XML syntax.
The XML document that follows XML grammar rules is called well-formed document. A document that includes sequence of markup characters that cannot be parsed or are invalid cannot be well-formed. The following points are to be kept in mind for a valid XML document:

1. The document must contain atleast one element
   
   
2. The document must have a root element A root element is a unique element in the XML document, which contains the complete document.
   
3. The element must have the opening and the closing tags To close a tag, you need to prefix the forward slash with the normal tag.
   
4. XML tags must be closed properly There must be a proper closing tag. In XML, empty tags must end with a following slash.
   
5. XML elements must be properly nested The parent element has to be opened before the child element and closed after the child element.
   
   This code is not well-formed because the root element (College) is closed before the parent element (Student).
6. XML tags are case sensitive XML tags are case sensitive means the opening and ending tags must be in the same case.
   
7. XML attribute values should be in double quotation marks The attribute value in an XML document should be enclosed in proper quotes.
   

2. Valid XML Document
A valid XML document is .not only a well-formed document but as well as they also checked error against a DTD or schema. DTD is a set of rules that defines what tags appear, what value those tags may contain and how the tags are related to each other in an XML document. Validation can be done only if the XML document has valid DTD. When an XML document is checked or parsed according to a particular structure or guidelines, the process is known as validation of the document.

Question 8. Define CSS. How to create a CSS file?
Answer: CSS is a simple design language intended to simplify the process of making Web pages presentable.
CSS is a type of stylesheet and this stylesheet consists of a list of rules. You can include a CSS in multiple XML documents that have the same data structure.

Syntax
selector
{
property: value; } Declaration Block
}

Creating a CSS File
To create a CSS file, you need to have all the style rules composed in it and save it with extension .css.

You can define the color in CSS by name as well as by code like green color may be written as #008000 or rgb(0,128,0).

Answer: Two points of difference between HTML and XML follows:

HTML	XML
HTML is a markup language that creates the form and appearance of the Web page.	XML is a text-based markup language for processing and displaying data in a structured format.
HTML documents are viewable in a browser.	XML documents can be viewed only if proper stylesheet file is also available alongwith XML file.

Three points of well-formed XML document are as follows:

1. The document must have a root element.
2. The element must have the opening and closing tags.
3. XML attributes values, should be in double quotation marks.

Question 3. Write two points of differences between XML and HTML. What is meant by a well-formed XML document (write two points)? Write the code to create an XML document with following data: CBSE 2013

Answer: The differences between XML and HTML are as follows:

1. HTML has predefined tags while XML has user-defined tags.
2. HTML document can be viewed directly by the Web browser while XML document cannot be viewed directly and need some proper stylesheet files.

A well-formed document means to follow several generic rules, such as follows:

1. XML document must contain atleast one element.
2. All tags must have the opening and closing tags as these XML tags are case sensitive.

The XML code is

 
 Singapore 
 200000 
 8 
 Aeroplane 


Shimla
 10000 
 4
 Bus 

Question 4. Explain with a help of an example, how root elements are placed in a XML document?
Answer: XML documents must contain one element that is the parent of all other elements. This element is called the root element. The root element encloses all other elements in XML. All other elements inside the root elements are the form of child element. The structure of the XML file should look like

....


e.g.


 101 
 Rahul 


 102 
 Sahil 


 103 
 Muskan 

You can see in the above example that the root element declared out here is then comes the child element which in turn stores the and of the employee in the tags.
