most of the articles I found here seemed to come close to what I want but then again - Im not sure...what I need is a way to bring in this: 184.173.18.228/api/profile/1000/0/Adam.Adams (which is an xml file) into php ( Im assuming) to be used in Joomla ( I can use Sourcerer for the code in Joomla) - the problem I have been running into is that there is a cross domain proxy problem - over last weekend I was able to render that xml when it was locally on my machine using ajax/jquery: \[code\]// jQuery script$(function() { // Load data from proxy.php using GET request $.get('test.xml', function(data) { // Search for the XML element you want, perform an action on each occurrence of found element $(data).find("XMLElement").each(function() { $('#output').append($(this).attr('XMLAttribute')); // Display desired attribute of element -OR- $('#output').append($(this).children("Phone").text());\[/code\]Im not even sure if Im asking the question correctly - what I would like to happen is: a php script to bring in that xml/url to echo/populate html on a page. I have tried a million things and just cant get itthamks! ( love stackoverflow!)Rob
