2. XML: For SGML on the Web

XML is a highly functional subset of SGML. The purpose of XML is to specify an SGML subset that works very well for delivering SGML information over the Web. When the mainstream Web browsers support XML, we believe that its going to be very easy to publish SGML information on the Web.
XML is almost indistinguishable from SGML as practiced. XML has almost all of the capabilities of SGML that are widely supported. XML also lacks some important capabilities of SGML that primarily affect document creation, not document delivery. Thats because XML was not designed to replace SGML in every respect. As you will see, SGML remains the appropriate technology for creating and storing information.
