boen_robot 107 Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 "We"? "Your XML language should..."? Is that a school assignment by any chance?Probably what they want you to do is use some language (whatever language is allowed: PHP, ASP.NET, etc.) to "screen scrap" this web page, and turn it into an XML document that contains said data. Read up on "DOM", and more specifically, the DOM as it appears in your language of choice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
alihero 0 Posted July 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 i guess they want me to extract a sample data form this home page as xml Quote Link to post Share on other sites
birbal 168 Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 it sounds like they want you to parse that site and manipulate the desired data in xml, and xslt to format the data in back to a html presentetion with help of CSS and DTD to validate your parsed xml. as boen already said the answer is DOM to manipulate the XML data. to get any further help you have to be specific which server side langauge you are using or planed to using. so that we can help you more efficiently..
