    Posted: 27 January 2007 at 9:18pm
Right, I've got a situation where I'm working on a website which requires a basic news system (Latest News headlines on each page, news item page itself, and an archive with all headlines listed) But  the site doesn't have dynamic capabilities. So I figured if I could use XML to store the data, then this would be easier than updating every single page.

However, I've quickly discovered that one can't use XML Data Islands (which is exactly what I'm after really) in anything other than IE. Disapprove

So is there any way of getting cross-browser integration of XML data into the HTML, as you would with a Data Island. Or any other easier method for that matter Geek

Apologies if this sounds confusing, as I've almost confused myself!

Cheers
Seb

I'm not sure what XML Data Islands are but if the site is not dynamic you can build the data in on you PC dynamically using DB to HTML technology.
 
Basically this takes any XML, excel, or ODBC data and parses it straight into html via a template.
Google 'db to html'
or www.straight2web.net has a table generator that will import XML into a table and then build the html code against a template.

XML Data Islands refers to ability of embedding "islands" of data inside HTML pages. These "data islands" are written in XML. Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 introduced <XML> tag which is used to create the Data Islands. A data island is an XML document that exists within an HTML page. It allows you to script against the XML document without having to load it through script or through the <OBJECT> tag
