Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater is probably not the best solution for that problem.  If 
the XML has to be parsed client-side, you will probably want to use 
Ajax.Request and wrap it with PeriodicalExecuter.

Subject: [Rails-spinoffs] Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater


I have a php script that pulls data from my db and generates a bunch of xml. I 
need a way to easily parse through the xml and pull different chunks out into 
different divs on my page.

I've used Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater to pull in the entire contents, but i'm not 
too sure how to go about just selecting the data I want and inserting it into 
different divs.

Any ideas? Thanks so much!
