Summary

Our conceptual discussions of DOMs, DTDs, XML, and HTML are now finished. The goal of this chapter was to set the stage for the how-to remainder of this book by setting a conceptual picture that will enable you to take full advantage of XMLC and the strategies to make the most of XMLC's capabilities.

The magic of XMLC, besides taking advantage of the DOM's approach to representing markup in an object-oriented manner, is its compiler approach to making DOMs more self-aware of the intended use of their contents for dynamic manipulation. This affects everything from easing the chore of XMLC development to improving general DOM modification performance by virtue of the LazyDOM.
