XML and XML Schema
Description
XML enables us to separate the data (the XML file) from the presentation (the form). It also enables us to integrate forms with workflow and server-side software and databases. This course is specifically designed to help you master XML and XML Schema for use in Adobe AEM forms and workflow. As you know, AEM forms and workflow are heavily dependent on expertise in XML and XML Schema. This course enables you to master these technologies to enhance your forms and workflow.
XML and XML Schema is organized into two sections. The first is XML Files and it focuses on the data files we use with forms and workflow. You will learn the structure and syntax of XML files and the difference between well-formed XML files and valid XML files. The second is XML Schema and it focuses on the elements and attributes in XML schemas. You will learn to create simple and complex types and learn how to use these types in Adobe forms.
