Great, but..., January 10 2008

The reason why this pocket reference does not feature XSLT and XPath is because these topics were broken out into the XSLT 1.0 Pocket Reference, by Evan Lenz. It has been very well received.
Great, but..., September 30 2005
I found this book very useful and very, very complete. However it lacks most of the 2nd editions topics, like XSLT and XPath. I think this book is great and over all very usefull. But im keeping both Editions.
Media reviews
"No waste space, no use of graphics, a small type face, and succinct writing have enabled a large amount of information to be packed into the book's 171 pages...Very well organized and each entry has an example of the relevant syntax. Anyone who works with XML should have a copy close at hand."
-- Major Keary, Book News
"This is the type of reference information I'd expect to see in a pocket guide. Something I can turn to quickly as a refresher for what parameters or attributes I can use with an element, or to gain a quick understanding of an element I haven't seen before. This same structure is followed for the RELAX NG and Schematron schema languages, so the book will be helpful if you live in those worlds also. "
-- Thomas Duff, Duffbert's Random Musings
"[Consumers] will find the fine 'pocket references' produced by O'Reilly to be compact and affordable."
