XML related definitions

[Razvan]

Hi !






I recently took some mock XML exams and I encountered the following
terms:

1.Static transformations = ?!! vs Just in time transformations
2.Parametrized DTDs = ?!!
3.Equivalent DOM nodes = ?!!
4.EDI System = ?!
5.Mixed content model = ?!
6.Just in time generation of XML documents = ?!!
7."Extended links are always external links ?!!" What are extended
links ?!


Can somebody explain what the meaning of those terms is ?
Regards,
Razvan

Hello,




Help is much appreciated... I am kind of lost in this XML
stuff. Helping me to understand at least some of the issues will
clarify a lot of related misunderstandings that I might have.

3.Equivalent DOM nodes = ?!! Too fuzzy to understand...
4.EDI System = ?!

Maybe EDI=Electronic Data Interchange

5.Mixed content model = ?! http://w3c.org/TR/2004/REC-xml-20040204/#sec-mixed-content
6.Just in time generation of XML documents = ?!!

Maybe "dinamic generation of an XML document" (for example, from database
data)

7."Extended links are always external links ?!!" What are extended links http://w3c.org/TR/xlink/#extended-link

A suggestion, start using Google.
