Hi VizGuy, Actually what I am doing totally has to do with the Google Visualization API.
1. I am using GXml in place of XMLHttpRequest as per Google's sample code: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/services.html 2. Don't look at it as something for the Google Maps API (although essentially the maps portion is a gadget of the google visualization api). 3. This is a read in of an xml file (a.k.a. reading in a file source). I'm sure many others are doing the same sort of thing if not similar. I would like to figure out this method without PHP.
