Well, I still don't get an XML file when I visit that page on my
server. Granted, all the information that is in the file is there,
however, I can't use PHP's nifty XML parsing tools to get that information.
To clarify the point, I would advise simply not using an XML file to
represent the data, unless such a file is indeed attainable, whether
actually existing on the file system or not. If a file like this can be
generated at a given URL or by a command to the server, that would also
be neato, but if nothing like the really exists, I would advise
re-writing the page without the XML at all.
All of this is assuming that I am understanding what you are saying - in
that, whomever wrote the documentation simply used XML as a way to
present the data. I would suggest, rather, a screen-shot of the actual
page, or what the actual page looks like.
