About the Author :
Ed Tittel is a 19-year veteran of the computing industry. After spending his first seven years in harness writing code. Ed switched to the softer side of the business as a trainer and a talking head. A freelance writer since 1986, Ed has written hundreds of magazine articles and worked on more than 100 computer books, including seven different For Dummies titles on subjects that include Windows 2000, Windows NT, NetWare, HTML, and XML. Ed still teaches on computer subjects for Austin Community College, the NetWorld + Interop trade show, and the Internet Security Conference (TISC). In his spare time, Ed likes to shoot pool, cook, and hang with his Labrador retriever, Blackie. Contact Ed at etittel@lanw.com. Frank Boumphrey is new to the For Dummies team but not new to XML. His rather disreputable career has included punch-card programming, jumping out of airplanes and hoping he didn't get shot on the way down (or when he landed), and spells as a Doctor of Medicine and, more recently, as a medical document consultant. His most recent crimes include helping to usher XHTML into the world as an editor of the XHTML recommendation, (the namespace police are still trying to locate his whereabouts) and attempting to foist classical literature marked up as XML on the world. He is perpetuating this latest crime under the alias of Director of the HTML Writers Guild Project Gutenberg Markup initiative. He is also vice-president of the HTML Writers Guild.
