Thanks, Jeremy for the leads. Fabulous!
I also need to be able to display XML without storing it in the MySQL database. I am using the code below to load it. This works fine EXCEPT that my CSS tags are getting stripped off. A tag in XML that says <p class="text"> appears in the Drupal page as <p>. In addition, <b> and <i> also get stripped off. The result is unformatted text.
How do I fix this?
TIA
Sue
