I'm afraid Steve is right. You really SHOULD spend some time working
with XML and you'll soon see why. Pretty much everything is XML based
now -- all your Office documents, from 2003, the Windows Vista UI,
almost all commercial web sites, pretty much everything in .NET and
Java is stuck together in XML, most cellphones, RSS, News Tickers on
TV... all use XML. Everything I'm doing in Flash is XML based. It
takes a fraction of the time to load and can describe complex data in
a really simple manner.
If you're not using XML, I assume you're not using Web Services
either, which means you're stuffed if you ever want to do structured
application design over the Internet.

C#, Java, AS3 - all XML "based" languages.
