COIN78 - XML Assignment One
Assignment one should really be straightforward, in that you will submit two XML files, one "nested" and one "empty" document. Use the address book as an example only. Your filename will look like filename_nested.xml and filename_empty.xml). Filename could be electronics or library or whatever. Try to keep it less than 15 characters total. A well annotated address book is shown in the infamous address_book.xml
Please note that the address book is an example only. You are strongly encouraged to develop your own content model. I can not assign full credit to address book projects that are essentially a remake of the example files. You must add substantial new content to the address book (50% or more) if you are staying with that theme. It's best for learning XML to develop your own project. Take a look at the example files to help choose a theme to develop your model.
-
Nested Model
An XML file with about 20 total elements (probably three to five records with groups of five to ten elements in each record), with a root element, and a total of five "records" for a file that would be an address book, or any theme that you decide on. Please see the tutorials that link from each week in http://fgamedia.org/faculty/rdcormia/COIN78/schedule.htm and specifically http://fgamedia.org/faculty/rdcormia/COIN78/lesson02.htm.
That file might be named filename_nested.xml.
An example file of a "nested" XML document can be downloaded (right click on the link) or viewed in MSIE from this link address_book nested.xml.
(Send the file by the end of week two.)
-
Empty Model
An XML file like the above, but using an "empty model" for creating the address_book.
That file might be named filename_empty.xml.
An example file of an "empty" XML document can be downloaded (right click on the link) or viewed in MSIE from this link address_book_empty.xml.
(Send the file by the end of week three. For the summer session send it by the end of week two.)
Please send the two files as attachments by email to pschales@gmail.com.
I will grade them within three days of receiving them. All students should request a receipt by email (set that in your options preferences).
