| Scalable Vector Graphics in HTML5
Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) are part of the vector family of
graphics. They have
several benefits over their raster counterparts: JPEG, GIF, and PNG. In this article, explore the basic concepts and usage of SVG
graphics in HTML5. Learn about drawing, filters, gradients, text, and adding SVG XML
to web pages.

| Render dynamic graphs in SVG
Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is an XML-based language for drawing
two-dimensional graphics. The ability to render graphics on the fly lends
itself naturally to using it for representing data such as graphs. But suppose
the data being represented varies in its magnitude. You may want to graph
values between 0 and 10 today, and between 0 and 100,000 tomorrow. Plotting
these values on the same scales would be useless -- ideally, you want the
ability to scale SVG graphs depending on their content. Author Brian Venn
shows you how.

| An early look at sXBL
SVG's XML Binding Language -- sXBL -- is an XML vocabulary being developed at the W3C as a means of mapping XML elements in arbitrary vocabularies to Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) pictures that represent those elements. For example, an XML Metadata Interchange (XMI) document can be turned into SVG code that shows the actual Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagram encoded in the XMI document. But sXBL takes the separation of presentation from content one step further: It is a generic language for rendering documents as arbitrarily complex two-dimensional pictures. This article offers an overview of this emerging and potentially powerful technology.

| Creating an XForms-based logo generator
Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) provides an easy way to declaratively create an image using XML, and XForms provides an easy way to edit XML. In this article you will put the two together to create an XForms-based XVG editor for creating SVG images such as logos.

| Make the most of Xerces-C++, Part 2
This two-part article offers an introduction to the Xerces-C++ XML library. Here in Part 2, Rick Parrish demonstrates how to load, manipulate, or synthesize a Document Object Model (DOM) document, and how to recreate the bar graph in Part 1 using Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG). C++ programmers who read these articles should be able to easily add XML parsing and processing capabilities to their applications.

| Querying and reporting on XML data sources in IBM Cognos 8 using IBM Cognos Virtual View
Manager
XML is increasingly becoming common as a means for information exchange. A web
service application is an example of the type of application that uses XML to exchange information.
Any business intelligence product or solution must have sufficient capability to query information
that could be in the form of XML. Learn how
IBM Cognos 8 delivers a comprehensive, flexible, secure, and scalable solution to query
and report on XML data sources, including web services, by leveraging the IBM Cognos
Virtual View Manager.

| Make the most of Xerces-C++, Part 1
This two-part article offers an introduction to the Xerces-C++ XML library. Part 1
explains how to link the library into applications written in Linux and Windows. Ample code
demonstrates parsing with the SAX API, and a sample application shows you how to create a bar
graph in ASCII art. In Part 2, I'll demonstrate how to load, manipulate, or synthesize a DOM
document, and you'll see how to create the same bar graph using Scalable Vector Graphics
(SVG). C++ programmers who read these articles should be able to easily add XML parsing and
processing capabilities to their applications.
