  I'm not quite sure what you are trying to do, but if you want to 
create HTML from one or more XML files you should look into XSLT.

  As a little try I made a very simple XML file (4 lines) on my server 
and also a XSL file (30 lines) for the transformation. This 
transformation loads additional XML from n8qq.com and extracts the 
fields I want and creates the HTML document. The nice thing is that this 
is done in the browser (Mozilla) - in theory! There is a security thing 
here. Mozilla does not allow the loading of the XML/XSL from different 
servers.

  However, this can be done in Perl using XML::LibXML and XML::LibXSLT. 
The transformation code in Perl should be about 10 lines. The XSLT 
files, though, are larger - XSLT is verbose, but powerful.
