The other option would be using some server-side language, but with that you would have to reload the page each time you changed something. I don't think there is anything similiar to JavaScript that you can embed into the XML file, since XML is only for storing information. You might be able to accomplish something like you want using XSLT, but since browser support for XSLT is still sketchy you would need some server-side language to parse it and you would be back where you started. [quote] I might be a little confusled but, I dont want to use javascript, because then each time I add a new element to the XML file, I will need to add the JS to do the visible/invisible bit, and the goal is really to make this open ended. [/quote] Not really sure what you mean with the visible/invisible bit here... The way I would add new elements to the XML sheet was to have a form with all the needed fields and use php to parse it into the tree. To change the form so it displays the right input fields etc you can use JavaScript. _________________________ "There are 10 kinds of people; those who know binary, those who don't and those who start counting at zero" - [url=http://www.golden-ratio.net]the Golden Ratio[/url] - [url=http://www.golden-ratio.net/vim]Vim Tutorial[/url] - Loading...
