Version

The version is 1.0. To create a sample file of your own, just copy this line.

Schema

You must give the name (and path if it’s in a different directory) of the schema.

Well-formed Rules

I’m sure you covered these rules in your class yesterday.

XML is case sensitive – not a problem for those who grew up with UNIX.

You must have beginning and ending tags.

Unlike HTML, the tags may not overlap.
