This course offers a comprehensive and practical exploration of the XML Document Object Model (DOM), guiding learners from foundational understanding to advanced manipulation techniques. Through real-world examples, interactive lessons, and targeted assessments, learners will identify, interpret, modify, and apply core and advanced DOM methods for working with XML documents.

Structured into three progressive modules, the course begins by establishing a conceptual framework of document models and core node structures. Learners then delve into node creation, traversal, and modification techniques using methods like cloneNode, appendChild, and removeChild. The final module introduces higher-order applications such as attribute node operations, comment handling, and full DOM workflows—empowering learners to confidently manage dynamic XML content. By the end of this course, learners will be able to analyze XML structures, construct and modify node trees, evaluate attribute data, and implement XML-based solutions using DOM methods effectively across a range of applications.

This module introduces learners to the foundational concepts and structural components of XML Schema (XSD), highlighting its advantages over Document Type Definitions (DTDs), the vocabulary and syntax of schema definitions, and the principles of XML document validity. Learners will gain a solid understanding of how XML Schema enhances XML data structuring through typed elements, grouping mechanisms, and validation strategies.

This module provides practical, example-driven instruction on implementing XML Schema (XSD) for real-world data validation. Through a series of progressive exercises, learners build, test, and refine schema documents to validate XML structures. The lessons introduce reusable types, attribute usage, constraints, grouping mechanisms, and the application of schema components to enforce business rules.
