XML

XML and HTML were designed with different goals:
       XML was designed to transport and store data, with focus on what data is
       HTML was designed to display data, with focus on how data looks
       HTML is about displaying information, while XML is about carrying information.
       Maybe it is a little hard to understand, but XML does not DO anything.

Example has sender and receiver information

       XML was created to structure, store, and transport information.

<Letter>
<to>                      The Principal                      </to>
<from> A. Ram Prathap Reddy   </from>
<heading>          Application                                         </heading>
<body>                h----------------------------               </body>
</Letter>
In XML we can create our own tags  (like <to> and <from>)
That is because the XML language has no predefined tags.
