After buggin them for 2 weeks, work has decided to get me an XML book...

Now the question is which?

Can anyone recommend a book?

Thanks

I agree with TWT, Wrox's book on XML (at least for beginners) is the best that I've come across!!! I haven't read their other one's on XML, but the beginners edition has a ton of pretty advanced stuff!

I have Professional XML by Wrox. Pretty comprehensive. Besides "pure" XML, it covers also SOAP, XSLT and other XML-related technologies.

so does the beginners edition, which was definitely a pleasant surprise. as you can tell I'm very enthusiastic about that book.

my edition covers:
xpath, xml dom, xslt, sax, css, schemas, ...doesn't touch toooo much on soap though.

I've been reading the O-Reilly 'Learning XML', they've got another one too...
'XML in a nutshell'

'Learning XML' has been great for explaining what the heck XML is and does, not real in-depth on examples though, and not really focused on one thing (like the web) But, well written and easy to grasp for basic concepts.

Thanks guys, I think I'm going to go with Pro XML from Wrox, the 2nd edition

That is one XML I don't have, but I can recommend XML by Example by QUE.

Well, don't forget: you can download code examples from Wrox's website...as well as sample chapters, most of the time. I've bought, and avoided buying, several books because of that. Very useful.

Never thought of that
