- Preventing State-Based Attacks of Web Applications
- Feb 24, 2006
- The concept of state, or the ability to remember information as a user travels from page to page within a site, is an important one for Web testers. Developers of Web applications must take it upon themselves to code state information so they can enforce rules about page access and session management. This chapter contains a series of attacks that will help determine if your Web application does this important task correctly and securely.

- RSS 101
- May 20, 2005
- Have you ever wondered what those XML and RSS icons on a web page mean? Have you ever been asked to aggregate somebody? Do you have too many blogs to read and no way to organize them? If you've answered yes to at least one of these questions, take a look at Bob Reselman's article on the fundamentals of RSS for the answers.

- RSS Clustering: A Unique Approach for Managing Your RSS Feeds
- Jul 8, 2005
- Content syndicated via RDF site summary (RSS) feeds is a great feature of the Net, with one big drawback: WTMI (way too much information). Jose Nazario discusses a custom RSS aggregation approach that allows the user to handle large volumes of RSS data, as well as find interesting trends within the flood.

- Saving Money with Legacy Data
- Mar 11, 2005
- Migrating legacy source code is a time-consuming and complicated business. The same is often true for the migration of legacy data, but there are some useful techniques that can reduce the cost. In this article, network management software specialist Stephen Morris discusses the migration (or upgrading) of legacy data into XML format. This process proves to be surprisingly straightforward and low in cost.

- Schema Extensibility and the any Element
- Oct 31, 2003
- Two of the most powerful and interesting aspects of XML Schema are the creation of extensible schemas and using XML Schema as a portable type system. Unfortunately, these two features are among the most difficult to understand and apply. This article provides some basic guidance on applying these features in your applications.

- Seven Steps to XML Mastery, Step 1: Read Before You Write
- Apr 28, 2006
- Frank Coyle takes us on the first step to mastering XML: learning how to read XML code. In this article, he discusses the power and use of RSS, SVG, DTDs, and a host of other web-related abbreviations that you've probably seen thrown around but never quite understood.

- Seven Steps to XML Mastery, Step 2: Display for the Web
- May 19, 2006
- Now that you've conquered step 1, reading XML code, it's time to learn how to prep that XML code for publishing on the Web. In step 2 of his series, Frank Coyle gives the lowdown on how to structure web pages with some key XHTML elements and attributes to take advantage of the power of Cascading Style Sheets and to get things ready for upcoming work with XSLT.

- Seven Steps to XML Mastery, Step 3: Exploring the Power of XSLT (Part 2 of 2)
- Jun 2, 2006
- Manual XSLT transforms are great, but Frank Coyle wants to push us a little harder. In this article, he shows how we can generate HTML dynamically from our XML, by using a Java servlet whenever someone visits our web site. As you’ll see, XSLT resembles a rule-based expert system that can transform XML into virtually any other data representation.

- Seven Steps to XML Mastery, Step 3: Transform with XSLT (Part 1 of 2)
- May 26, 2006
- Frank Coyle is ready to take us one step closer to XML mastery in this article on how to leverage the power of XSLT, XPath, and namespaces to generate HTML code dynamically from the customer's XML data.

- Seven Steps to XML Mastery, Step 4: Parsing and Processing XML (Part 1 of 2)
- Jun 9, 2006
- In this fourth step to XML mastery, Frank Coyle starts us into the world of parsing technology with a look at the major parsing models: DOM, SAX, and StAX (a newcomer on the block). With some parsing technology under your belt, you can programmatically extract, modify, and even create XML - and it's actually much less complicated than it sounds.

- Seven Steps to XML Mastery, Step 4: Parsing and Processing XML (Part 2 of 2)
- Jul 7, 2006
- In the second part of step 4 toward XML mastery, Frank Coyle moves us a bit deeper into the XML parsing world, with a look at how SAX filters can be used to compose parsing components into more complex applications. He then takes a look at a hot new successor to SAX called StAX, which lets applications “pull” information from an XML document as needed. StAX is generating a lot of interest in both the server and handheld device worlds, where applications need to stay in control in order to manage their resources.
