XML Data Islands, is this open standard, and in common use?

Howdy,

Got some data that favors XML as a means of organizing it. I want to
embed it in HTML documents. I'm a newbie w/ XML but know my way around
Perl/C/HTML acceptably well.

I found this: http://www.w3schools.com/xml/xml_data_island.asp

which describes a simple embedding technique for sticking XML in a web
page. It describes this as an "Explorer" feature. I am dead set on
using ONLY open source and open standards. So is what is described
here W3C/IETF/OSI compliant or is it a Microsoft-ism?

Could somebody refer me to the correct way of doing this if it is not
kosher cross-vendor?

I intend to write a browser plugin for interpreting my XML. I would
like to register the embedded data as document type. Which standards
body would I go to in order to register an document type based on
XML?

Thanks in advance!
