XML code, a formal recommendation from the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), is similar to Hypertext Markup Language (HTML). Both XML and HTML contain markup symbols to describe page or file contents. HTML code describes Web page content (mainly text and graphic images) only in terms of how it is to be displayed and interacted with. XML data is known as self-describing or self-defining, meaning that the structure of the data is embedded with the data, thus when the data arrives there is no need to pre-build the structure to store the data; it is dynamically understood within the XML. The XML format can be used by any individual or group of individuals or companies that want to share information in a consistent way. XML is actually a simpler and easier-to-use subset of the Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML), which is the standard to create a document structure.

HTML tags pre defined tags..while XML(metamarkup language) tags are custom tags ie..,we can able to create our own tags.. html is designed to display data(static) with the focus on look and feel of data..while XML is used to transport the data(dynamic) and store data,with focus on what data is. XML Is useful in exchanging data between applications. and also data can be extracted from database.
