Question 9

XML allows you to create pages in which styles change instantly based on user actions.

Accepted Answer

XML is primarily used for storing and transporting data. It does not inherently handle styling or user interactions; that would be the role of technologies like CSS and JavaScript in conjunction with HTML.

Question 10

By setting the value of the object window.____ to false, you prevent error windows from opening when scripts have problems completing.
A)fail

The correct property is window.onerror, which is set to a function that is called when an error occurs in a script. By setting it to false, error messages are suppressed. Setting window.fail to false would have no effect since it is not a valid property. Setting window.quit to false would not prevent error messages from appearing. And setting window.error to false is not a valid property.
