System: Need to plot points on a map.This points x,y coridinates a link is the information contained in the <node> tag.I use php to write this xml file by taking information from the database at each load of the page.

<xml>
.....
<categories id='1' ></categories>
<categories id='n' ></categories>

<node id='1' category=''><x>X</x><y></y><lnk></link>

</xml>

Above is a rough structure but the thing is that if i dont try to use link then the xml file is used to plot the points else it says not valid format in ff javascript console.

this link is fetched from database table before writing to xml file.Please help me with nice pointers , suggestion and if possible a dummy code.

regards
