Experiments for a set of general scripts to access XML documents from javascript. Would not work with legacy browsers. Not well tested on Opera.
Get RSS of the weblog of this site, and parse it as an XML, then extract title, link, date, then display them as an XHTML list.
Submit HTTP HEAD request for given URI and display the response.
Get tab separated text file, and convert the data into an XHTML table.
In case the target XML has a problem, or UA could not parse response data (due to media type). Result will vary depending on your UA.
