Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Getting Started:
WebSpeed Essentials

> ## XML

> Extensible Markup Language (XML) is supported directly in WebSpeed’s SpeedScript (4GL) language, allowing you to exchange data between OpenEdge-supported data sources and XML documents. XML, considered the standard for exchanging data between disparate applications, is a markup language like HTML. However, unlike HTML, XML describes document content in terms of the data without regard for how it is to be displayed.

> WebSpeed contains an industry standard XML parser, allowing developers to use SpeedScript to create programs that send and receive XML documents to/from other XML-enabled Web applications using Document Object Model (DOM) and SAX interfaces.
