XML let you handle information.
Per example you can write:

<someinfo>
write some info here
</someinfo>

<anotherinfo>
write other info
</anotherinfo>

And then you can manage it in a easy way, sharing it between different programs and handle it with easy.

main use of XML in web page is with XSL and XSLT.. since Application can generate output in XML.. u can combine it with XSL and fisplay a HTML formatted webpage.. sharing information would not be a problem regardless of wether u run a linux or windows server, asp or PHP, MSSQL or MySQL
