ITPEC FE Morning October 2021 — Question 10 of 80

XML (eXtensible Markup Language) — user-defined tags for data structure.

XML allows defining custom tags to describe the attributes and logical structure of a document.

Why not others:
- (a) XML is plain text — any text editor can create it, no exclusive editor needed

- (b) XML separates structure from style (styling is handled by XSLT/CSS), not integrates them

- (c) XML is not based on HTML — both derive from SGML independently; HTML has fixed tags, XML has user-defined tags

Key rule: XML's core feature is extensibility — users define their own tags and structure.
