  <h1><a name="xml">Professional XML Development with Apache Tools: Xerces, Xalan, FOP, Cocoon, Axis, Xindice</a></h1>
  
  <h3>Book overview</h3>
  <p>If you're a Java programmer working with XML, you probably already use some of the tools developed by the Apache Software Foundation. This book is a code-intensive guide to the Apache XML tools that are most relevant for Java developers, including Xerces, Xalan, FOP, Cocoon, Axis, and Xindice.</p>
  
  <p>Theodore Leung, a founding member of the Apache XML Project, focuses on the unique capabilities of these best-of-breed XML tools. With the help of a sample application, he demonstrates how you can use them in unison to develop professional XML/Java applications for the real world.</p>
  
  <p>If you need in-depth information to help you assemble a workable toolbox for developing sophisticated XML-based applications, you'll find it in this volume.</p>
  
  <p>What you will learn from this book:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>How the Apache XML Project relates to Java programming </li>
  <li>When you'll need some of Xerces' extra parsing features, like grammar caching </li>
  <li>How to use Xalan's XSLTC to compile XSLT stylesheets into Java </li>
  <li>Prerequisites and applications for FOP and Batik</li> 
  <li>Cocoon concepts and development </li>
  <li>Development techniques and practical usage for Xindice </li>
  <li>How to develop back-end applications with XML RPC and Axis </li>
