Hi all,
I am a newcomer to XML, so please forgive me if this Q seems a little silly.
Basically i have an XML file with several sections within it.
eg: Cars, motorbikes, vans etc.
Within each category is sub categories manufacturers like Ford, Toyota... and within each manufacturer category there are more sub categories such as price, Model number, year etc.
I have all the data stored in one root element <list> on an xml file, and i want to produce a set of static html pages from these files which the user can navigate through. Firstly presented with the Main category section on a page such as:
Cars
Motorbikes
Vans
the user can click on a category and be taken to the sub categories etc.
However I am not sure how to extract the appropriate data and present it in individual pages in accordance to where the user clicks.
I am thinking I must use Xpath, or a location path..though I am not entirely sue how to do this ?
Any help would be much appreciated.
