Dynamic XML feed

Question

I wrote a php file that will generate a dynamically XML
string from a record set. I am using the XMLWriter to do this. The
output is similar to Export XML (not dynamic) from record set
extension . My XML output looks good and valid markup.

When creating a new XSL file, If I select the locate XML
source option, the bindings show Invalid document. If I use the
remote file option everything works fine.

Another interesting point is, If I hand code the
transformation process, instead of using MM_XSLTransform class,
everything is good.

I would love to be able to use DW CS3 for this, so I can use
the design view. Would writing a proxy file be the right way to go
with this? Looking at server time to write a file.

Since your file is dynamically generated, it needs to beparsed by a web server, even if it's localhost. The local file option is forstatic XML.-- David Powers, Adobe Community ExpertAuthor, "The Essential Guide to Dreamweaver CS3" (friends ofED)Author, "PHP Solutions" (friends of ED)http://foundationphp.com/

David,

I was thinking about that this morning here about the local file option being static xml. I will have to use the remote file option, then change the URL when I do my upload to the live server. To bad they do not have an option for a local dynamic file for xml source.

Thanks,
David Pearson
