load xml file into powerprompt html page with javascript

[rigged]

I'm trying to load xml data from a separate page into a html page in powerprompts.
I can load a string like;
var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject(&quot;Microsoft.XMLDOM&quot; xmlDoc.loadXML(&quot;<employee><tag1>GREEN</tag1></employee>&quot;

this works fine.

I would like to load xml data from a separate html page.
xmlDoc.loadXML(&quot;xmlFile.xml&quot;
always comes back null.

xmlDoc.loadXML(&quot;<%Response.Write(App.Path)%>xmlFile.xml&quot;
won't work either.

Eventually, I would like to build my xml data on the server side and read it on the client side, thus I could read a database quickly.
Can this be done?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
