Book for Learning XML and Java [closed]

Question

I have a very basic knowledge regarding XML. But now I want to dig more related to this. I am using Java so I would like to ask for advise on what particular book is useful in my case.

Can you share with me the best possible book that I could purchase. I tried to look at amazon but I got discouraged in some of the reviews that these book are out of date while other says that this one is worthless.

My knowledge in java is perhaps ahead of the beginner stage. Any recommendations?

Answer 1

I liked Effective XML. It assumes some knowledge of XML but you can get by with just the basics.

JavaRanch lists many reviews of XML books. Most of the reviews for XML are over 5 years old though.
