. Any one with an idea of XML? Does it have to work on server? This is because I have no experience working with XML and I am trying to manipulate to see if it can work with Dom and JavaScript. I am following a certain manual but it never gave me pleasant results as nothing was displayed anything on me desktop. Your assistance will be of great help to me.

I am using does not have this facility. Is there anyone who has imported a text or CSV data into database? Anyone with an idea? I want to import my data without messing it up. Any suggestions? Kindly assist.

Idea of XML and how it works on server

XML stands Extensible Markup Language, being a textual data format it is used for interchanging data. An XML is a plain text file, it is the same as an HTML file. It is usually easy to be stored in a standard web server. They are stored in internet servers the same way HTMLs are stored. It is also very easy to generate an XML on a server that has no previous XML Software installed.

How it works is that when a request or an event occurs in your browser an XML is created. Then through Http which is normally a means of communication the request is send to the server which receives it  in an XML format. The server will then receive, process and creates a response which it then send back the information to your browser through Http. The response received by the browser is also in XML format. The figure below will help you understand more about how XML works.
