Other XML-Based Technologies
XML is a meta-language used to create other markup languages and applications. This powerful tool has enabled the development of some specialized standards. These are just a few. To see other XML technologies, visit the W3C site. With the modularization of XHTML and other XML specifications, it may be possible to mix and match XML modules within a single document, for example: XHTML, SVG, and MathML.
- SVG 1.1 (Scalable Vector Graphics)
This is an XML language for defining two-dimensional vector and mixed vector/raster graphics. SVG is discussed briefly in Chapter 7. For in-depth information, read the specification at http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/.
- MathML 2.0 (Mathematical Markup Language)
Just as it sounds, this is an XML language for defining the elements of mathematical notation, in both structure and content, for mathematics to be communicated and processed on the Web. More information and the specification can be found at http://www.w3.org/Math/.
- SMIL 1.0 (Synchronized Media Integration Language) and SMIL 2.0
SMIL is an XML language for creating multimedia presentations that combine images, text, audio, and video in timed displays. More information and specifications can be found at http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/.
