Below is a list of techniques you should avoid using when working with XML.
Internet Explorer - XML Data Islands
What is it? XML data islands are XML data embedded directly into an HTML page.
Why avoid it? XML data islands work only in Internet Explorer browsers.
What to use instead? You should use JavaScript and the XML DOM in HTML to parse and display XML.
For more information on JavaScript and the XML DOM, please visit our XML DOM tutorial.
XML Data Island Example
This example uses the XML document "cd_catalog.xml".
Bind the XML document to an `` tag in the HTML document. The `id` attribute defines the identifier for the data island, and the `src` attribute points to the XML file:
Example
This example works only in IE browsers
The `datasrc` attribute of the `
` tag binds the HTML table to the XML data island.
The `` tag allows the `datafld` attribute to reference the XML elements to be displayed. In this example, the referenced elements are `"ARTIST"` and `"TITLE"`. When reading the XML, a corresponding table row is created for each `` element.
Internet Explorer - Behaviors
What is it? Internet Explorer 5 introduced behaviors. Behaviors are a way to add functionality to XML (or HTML) elements by using CSS styles.
Why avoid it? Only Internet Explorer supports the `behavior` attribute.
What to use instead? Use JavaScript and the XML DOM (or HTML DOM) instead.
Example 1 - Mouseover Highlight
The `` element in the following HTML file defines a behavior for the `` element:
h1 { behavior: url(behave.htc) }
Mouse over me!!!
Below is the XML document "behave.htc" (this file contains JavaScript code and event handlers for the element):
function hig_lite()
{
element.style.color='red';
}
function low_lite()
{
element.style.color='blue';
}

Example 2 - Typewriter Simulation
The `` element in the following HTML file defines a behavior for the element with `id="typing"`:
#typing
{
behavior:url(typing.htc);
font-family:'courier new';
}
IE5 introduced DHTML behaviors.
Behaviors are a way to add DHTML functionality to HTML elements
with the ease of CSS.
How do behaviors work?
By using XML we can link behaviors to any element in a web page
and manipulate that element.v
Below is the XML document "typing.htc":
var i,text1,text2,textLength,t;
function beginTyping()
{
i=0;
text1=element.innerText;
textLength=text1.length;
element.innerText="";
text2="";
t=window.setInterval(element.id+".type()",speed);
}
function type()
{
text2=text2+text1.substring(i,i+1);
element.innerText=text2;
i=i+1;
if (i==textLength)
{
clearInterval(t);
}
}
