This structured information contains the words and the pictures. The identification of XML based on: Norman Walsh (1998), said: that, it is a markup language for documents containing structured information. Both XML and HTML contain markup symbols to describe the contents of a page or file. XML is similar to Hypertext Markup language (HTML). It widely used for the representation of data such as those used in web services. It is a textual data with strong support by coding the data for different human languages. Usage and the aims of XML are to simplify, generalize the data across the internet. XML stands for an Extensible Markup Language (XML) file format used to create, share and transform information formats and share both the format and the data on the World Wide Web (internet) by use standard ASCII text. Simplicity XML Flat TXT File Transformation Size Structure Introduction The plain text file format is fairly not organized and unstructured text-based content except the head section TXT file. TXT plain txt file is simpler than XML file which are both text based content because that, the same content after converting to TXT format took just 1KB. This study got that XMl files are structured programmed content and took some Kilobytes size, such as XML Spreadsheets formats which are taken for a text and a picture content just 3KB, whilst in XML PowerPoint Presentation took 97KB. The XML file formats are very simple to treat in structure in such as transforming and in converting among various applications. The method of this research are content size and comparison between XML file format and TXT flat file.

Complex formats of the files will cause difficulty in treating with, for instance files transformation while the simple files could treat with them with insurance of no need for compatibility requirements and no virus effect. From these formats are XML formats and plain and flat TXT file formats.


Easy and simplicity of transformation, sharing and storing files among programs, platforms and machines.
