Thanks Mamta and Shashank!
Shashank,
I'll try to answer your questions:
1> How close does the sample test come to the real thing ? I read on yahoo groups that it is not too close to the real test.
Yes, it is not too close to the real test but few questions have some similarity. It's better to take both the sample tests for 140 and 141( at IBM's site)before taking the real test.
2> Do we need to know the interfaces etc of DOM and SAX completely ?
The best way to learn is to download the parser
and try the examples at java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/dist/1.1/docs/tutorial/TOC.html#intro
Finally, before the test, I went through DOM and SAX given in Professional XML 2nd edition.
3> What references did you use for XML signature, security etc ?
www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core 4> How long did it take for you to prepare for the exam ?
It took one month.
I referred Professional XML 2nd edition,
XML Schema, wrox press, xml.com
for XSLT,
www.zvon.org Good Luck!
