XML is already being put to powerful uses on the Web. Some languages, like XHTML and RSS, are expanding the possibilities of web-based content and changing the way we use the Web itself. Others have found small niche uses (such as SMIL and MathML) or have yet to live up to their promised potential (such as SVG). This section introduces these XML languages and others that are relevant to the Web.
