This book will cover the intersection between two great technologies: ASP.NET and XML.XML has been a hot topic for some time. The massive industry acceptance of this W3C Recommendation, which allows data communication and information storage in a platform independent manner, has been astounding. XML is seen and used everywhere—from the display of data on various browsers using the transformation language XSLT, to the transport of messages between Web services using SOAP. .NET is Microsoft’s evolutionary and much vaunted new vision. It allows programming of applications in a language independent manner, the sharing of code between languages, self-describing classes, and self-documenting program code to name but a few of its capabilities. .NET, in particular ASP.NET, has been specifically designed with Web services and ease of development in mind. With the release of .NET 2.0 Framework, .NET includes significant enhancements to all areas of ASP.NET. For Web page development, new XML data controls like XmlDataSource, and TreeView make it possible to display and edit data on an ASP.NET Web page without writing code reducing the required amount of code by as much as 70% in some cases. ADO.NET 2.0 includes many new features that allow you to leverage the new XML features introduced with SQL Server 2005 (the next major release of SQL Server).
