XML XML is a syntax specification based on the idea of markup languages. A markup language is a language where the structure of the document is explicitly encoded using tags. DTDs encode a context-free language and are equivalent to BNF grammars. Because XML documents encode both the grammar and the content explicitly, parsers can rely on the self-documenting nature of the document. The format is self documented.
