This text is aimed at Perl programmers who need to work with XML documents and data. The book covers all the major modules for XML processing in Perl, including: XML Simple; XML Parser; XMLLibXML; XMLXPath; XMLWriter; XMLParser; PerlSAX; XMLSAX; XMLSimpleObject; XMLTreeBuilder; XMLGrove; XMLDOM; XMLRSS; XMLGeneratorDBI; and SOAPLite. It also gives a complete, comprehensive tour of the landscape of Perl and XML, its myriad of modules, terminology, and techniques. Topics covered include: parsing XML documents and writing them out again; working with event streams and SAX; tree processing and the Document Object Model; and advanced tree processing with XPath and XSLT. The last two chapters of Perl & XML give complete examples of XML applications, pulling together all the tools at your disposal. All together, Perl & XML offers a solid grounding in XML processing with Perl.
