XML and Perl: The next generation
XML and Perl::Summary
In this article we learned what XML is, what it can be used for, and developed a Perl script
to retrieve and display the contents of HTML embedded XML tags. We also developed a script that
gathers news headlines from an XML file and creates an HTML news summary.
Now that we've had a small taste
of embedded XML and Perl, I hope you will begin to think of new ways to use XML on
your Web site. I believe that the power of Perl and flexibility of XML are the right
combination to bring the Web out of its infancy and into a new era of information
technology. In future articles, we will discuss the use of XML for Web site management in more detail.
