2nd Assignment: CV Preparing an XML/XSLT Resume

Redesign your own resume as an XML document including at least five sections («education», «employment history», «social skills», «technical skills», «accomplishments», etc.) As you design your XML file, think about items that would be of more interest to a management reader and other items that would be of more interest to a technical reader. For example, a management reader might be more interested in your «social skills» while a technical reader would be more interested in «technical skills».

Create a Document Type Definition (DTD) file resume.dtd specifying the content of your resume.

Now create two stylesheets, manager.xsl and technical.xsl, which display the manager and technical "views" respectively. There will be some overlap (both classes of reader would want to know your name!) but there should be several differences as well.
