=XML //[Draft]//=

XML, short for e**X**tensible **M**arkup **L**anguage, a type of markup language that has the purpose of facilitating the sharing of data across different platforms, particularly the Internet. XML combines text and extra information about the text. The extra information, for example about the text's structure or presentation, is expressed using markup, which is intermingled with the primary text. This separation of content and formatting allows users to give their own presentational formatting style to the shared content.

XML is mainly intended for things like documents and publications. It has recently gained popularity by striking a good balance between simplicity and flexibility. XML is now commonly used for passing information between applications.
