AGENDA:

Tom Gavin and Joseph E. Hughes        Processing XML documents in Java

        The speakers will present an overview of XML and the Java 	
language. They will introduce the two types of parsers, event 	
	based and tree based. An introduction to various Java 
	technologies is presented (Applets, Servlets, JSP) to serve a 
	foundation for XML processing on the web. 

	Tree based parsing will be demonstrated
        with various Java programs using the DOM API. Event based
        parsing will be demonstrated using the SAX API.

Tony Graham, Mulberry Technologies  -  How XSL Works

                          Are you interested in the new
                          Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL)
                          but don't know how it works? Do you
                          want to use XSL but don't know where
                          to start? This presentation introduces
                          XSL to people who have not used it before.
                          Through simple examples, it demonstrates
                          the basic concepts of XSL, the structure of
                          stylesheets, and how to produce both HTML 
                          and formatted output.
