Loading an external XML file into HTML DIV

[qmeister72]

Hi,

I need for my client to be able to edit a particular piece of website text themselves and so am trying to come up with the least fussy solution.

I believe it might be possible to bring the text in via an XML file and the use of AJAX ? Not sure.....saw a forum post eluding to this type of solution.

Now my AJAX knowledge is zero.....could anyone point me in the right direction or make any suggestions which might help me to achieve this ?

Many thanks

Q.

I love JQuery, so this is the type of solution I'm going to give you.

On a website I recently did, I enabled an "edit-in-place" JQuery plugin, which sounds like something you might want to do.

Here's the link to the plugin I used:

And here's the link to JQuery:

If this sounds like a plausible solution to you, let us know; be more than happy to assist you with configuration should you need it.
