Hi, I've been learning about XML and all its uses and it seems pretty sweet. However, my boss wants me to make it so that our web site is populated from an xml file rather than a database. This doesn't seem like the use that XML is really intended for. We have no intention of allowing other sites to use the information for something like an RSS feed.

Am I not getting what XML is for? is there any reason to get things like upcoming events and news from an XML file rather than a database?

Thanks
