    XML is 6.0. JS is 1.7 I believe.

    Either way, what you have should give you a good introduction and good idea on the basics of developing in those languages as they have not changed.

    Originally called "LiveScript", Javascript was adapted into Netscape Navigator 2.0 In December 1995. Below is the link ("26-dom-article.html") that should supply all the info you need/want on JavaScript.

    In addition, XML has historic links to much older protocols. Both specs. are managed by the W3C (an international commitee defining numerous protocols and technology).

    If you have time and inclination, you’ll find amazing things here — happy hunting!
