I have an adres to a XML source, how do i make it so i can display this XML on my page?

Is there any easy way to do this?

XML alone is just pure data. You need to do something with the data. For example MODX uses XML to store the MOD actions. It then uses an xsl stylesheet to style that data (wich will result in a html-simillar page). RSS feeds use the data in other ways, there are differen't clients that display and manage that data differently.

Hope that gives you a better understanding of what XML is.

So the answer to your question... yes, it's possible to display XML on your page. If you have PHP5, it's very easy to convert XML to an array (with simpleXML), and then display it whatever way you like

Ok so how do i make all this then?
Is there any simple way to do this for an amatuer?

You need to give us more information...

Are you on PHP5? What's the link to that XML file?

Yes i have PHP5, and the link is, http://www.svenskaspel.se/includes/xmle ... roduktid=1

Thats just one, and i have alot more with different contents, but lets try with this one above.

Have a look in the manual: [man]simplexml[/man]

Unfortunately that manual thosent say so mutch to me. :\

So is that all i need to do then?
Just put that in where it should be?

well just paste that into an empty file (with <?php ?> tags), and see what you get

[php]
<?php
$contents = file_get_contents('http://www.svenskaspel.se/includes/xmlelements/XMLkupong.asp?produktid=1');

$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($contents);

echo '<pre>' . print_r($xml, true) . '</pre>';
?>
[/php]

Thank.

How do i go from here do make the disply look a little bit nicer?
