Learning XML questions...

[dcruz]

I have created an HTML page that searches for a word in an XML file. If the word is not found than I would like to append it to the XML file. Appending to the XML file is what I am having problems with. Wait, let me restate that. I don't know how to do that. Your advice and help are appreciated.

Thank you,

Can we see the file 'caz i am not sure how you made an html file search a xml file?

Do you have access to server-side languages that you can program in such as perl, asp, or java?

For example, using perl, you could
1. create some basic form in html
2. upon form submission, you'd fire off your perl script
3. using any of the host of xml libraries for perl (such as XML::LibXML), you'd read, parse the xml make the determination, and decide whether to append or not.
