Hi people

I have been interested in writing very simple html for many years, every now and then i decide to attempt something new. I want to populate xml data from an external source so the data in my html is automatically updated when the xml is updated. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance,
Craig F

This is possible with ajax and jquery on the client side. While on the server side, ASP, PHP, python, ruby, and node.js.

Well, to process the xml you need either a web service or a ECMA/JAVA-Script in the web page. The web service could be php, asp, jsp, CGI . . . .
