HTML - short for Hypertext Markup Language,It provides a means to describe the structure of text-based information in a document by denoting certain text as headings paragraphs lists and to supplement that text with interactive forms embedded images and other objects.
XML stands for Extensible Markup Language XML was designed to describe data and to focus on what data is.
XML was designed to carry data.
Before you continue you should have a basic understanding of the following :
XML was designed to describe data and to focus on what data is. HTML was designed to display data and to focus on how data looks .
HTML is about displaying information, while XML is about describing information.
XML is a mark up language used for database and HTML is scripting language used for websites.

I have a very little idea of xml file, as while submitting the sitemap of my website to google, I have created one xml file by another website's programe.
I think that XML is used to publish websites and designing also possible using XML but it is difficult language.Quote:

Sorry wrong concept on XML , xml plays vital role in web designing and specially in development work and its helps in integration of 3'rd party service to your website and many more and who told you that xml is related with seo work...it has no relation with seo..its has no relation with it.We can use xml in web designing as the entire blogger site is running with XML only.All feeder sites also running with it. No asp script will run without valid xml script and you can't embed any widgets or any code in asp sites without the help of valid xml and other supported languages.Quote:

yeah i think that xml is helpful too. but for most bloggesr html will be just fine. anyways, i will go learn html again cause there are some things i left out before. there are still some things i was not able to take up. it is easy actually to learn HTML. but it is time consuming though. in what site we should go to learn it. and also it needs a little practice to understand it well. and the most important is to have a copy or print the webpage of the tutorial so you can get back to it when you forget it. i do have to print it cause i keep forgetting it.
debasish, is it possible to create a webpage with xml only? or this only used to do certain specific job along with html codes?Quote:

So, basically xml is a kind of markup language which can be used to create web pages like html, right?Quote:

HTML is a markup language that is used to design web pages. It is written in predefined tag elements. Its primary purpose is to display data with focus on how the data looks. XML is a markup language whose primary purpose is to transport and store data. It is a language that can be used to develop new languages and define other languages. It does not have a predefined set of tags, and allows the developer to customize tags.
The Difference Between XML and HTML. XML and HTML were designed with different goals: XML was designed to carry data - with focus on what data is. HTML was designed to display data - with focus on how data looks.
