You might be be able to use AJAX to access the XML and parse it using JavaScript. That's one idea. You could also consider offline parsing of the XML. For example a cron job could be run every so often to extract the necessary value into a text file. You could then include that value into template or even mapfile content. If the XML data doesn't change that often then this might be a good option.

The images are "time support" but I don't know the last day that MODIS image is available. This data is the default value in xml definition file (http://neowms.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/wms/wms?version=1.1.1&service=WMS&request=GetCapabilities). I'd like collect the last data value available and use it for print the data that I'm using for my web application. Without this value, I can show the map but I don't know it's acquiring data.
