         <description>Sales report for the West Coast, Central and East Coast regions.</description> 
      </summary>
      <data>
         <region>
            <name>West Coast</name> 
            <quarter number="1" books_sold="24000" /> 
            <quarter number="2" books_sold="38600" />

            <quarter number="4" books_sold="21000" /> 
         </region>
         <region>
            <name>Central</name> 
            <quarter number="1" books_sold="11000" /> 
            <quarter number="2" books_sold="16080" /> 
            <quarter number="3" books_sold="25000" /> 
            <quarter number="4" books_sold="29000" /> 
         </region>
         <region>
            <name>East Coast</name> 
            <quarter number="1" books_sold="27000" /> 
            <quarter number="2" books_sold="31400" /> 
            <quarter number="3" books_sold="40100" /> 
            <quarter number="4" books_sold="30000" /> 
         </region>
      </data>
   </sales>
   

2. Save the file as Sales.xml.

3. To view the file in Internet Explorer, open Sales.xml.
