I need to hide some XML content from being displayed in the site visitor's web browser while retaining usability for providing data to various pages.

Basically I want the file to be read if called from a particular place and read denied if called directly.

I have tried <access-control
but this denied use in the opposite manner where I could access the file directly from a particular url base but could not can it from another page indirectly.

Thank you for any help.

Just provide an XSLT stylesheet that transforms the XML to some neutral, or blank, HTML. In you XML file's prolog, something like:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="hide-it.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>And then as hide-it.xsl, somethng like:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>

<xsl:stylesheet
version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:output
doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
doctype-system="http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"
encoding="iso-8859-1"
indent="yes"
method="html"
version="4.01"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"/>
<meta name="Content-Script-Type" content="text/javascript"/>
<meta name="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css"/>
<title>Example</title>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico"/>

<link href="/style-screen.css" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
<link href="/style-print.css" media="print" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Example</h1>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
