Re: How to use xml?

That looks like valid RSS, so however you created it, you did it correctly. If on the other hand, you are asking how to consume that RSS feed to display content on your site, you'll need to write some code in whatever server-side language you use to parse the XML into whatever you like (HTML, presumably). So you should ask your question in either the ASP, PHP, or ASP.NET Forum.

I don't use Dreamweaver, but doubt it has any way of authoring an RSS consumer.
