The XML class from About.com is a free, 10-week class about the eXtensible Markup Language or XML. The lessons are sent weekly by email, but the class is self-paced. You may read and review any of the lessons at any time. You can also have them resent to you. The following articles are part of week 3.

This is a self-paced class. This means that if you need more time than a week to review the lessons, that is fine. And if you finish the lessons before the next week, you can request the next lesson.
