Can anyone explain to me the easiest way to turn an XML document to html? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

---

There is no one way to convert XML to HTML. They are different "languages" for different things. XML is a platform independent way of transferring data between co-operating but potentially very different systems. HTML is a way of formatting data.

<Item>1</Item>
<Item>2</Item>
<Item>3</Item>
<Item>4</Item>
<Item>5</Item>

Simple bit of XML, but is that to be presented as paragraphs of text? As a list? As bullet points? In a table? Red, blue? Etc.

If you had a specific XML structure, and a specific format, that would be different. I wrote some of my teams stats pages. These are mostly XML source and HTML/CSS displays. I use Perl to do that.

Depends on what you want to do, but you may want to look into XSLT stylesheets.

What I want to do is take the xml file from http://boinc.netsoft-online.com/get_user.php?cpid=#### and turn it into an html table. I would like to use php to do this.
