Greetings Andrew,
I appreciate all of the help. So here is a breakdown of how I have it as of now:
Code:
<span id="Body0"></span>
<span id="Body1"></span>
<span id="Body2"></span>
etc...
<script>
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
{// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari
xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
}
else
{// code for IE6, IE5
xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
xmlhttp.open("GET","secretlink=xml",false);
xmlhttp.send();
xmlDoc=xmlhttp.responseXML;
var i=0,d;
while (d=document.getElementById("Body"+i)) d.innerHTML=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("Body")[i++].childNodes[0].nodeValue;
</script>
And here is small sample of the XML file I'm pulling the data from:
Code:

I don't know what exactly I'm doing wrong, but essentially I'm pulling "Body" Data with the code into an array, and somehow I need to pull the "Created" info (converted into format Tuesday, December 16th 8:55pm)
I've tried the code you suggested and been smashing my head against the wall trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong.
Oh, and for clarification, the code should essentially create the spans "Created0", "Created1", etc. It already extracts the Body data, which was pretty simple because I'm not editing it at all.
I wish I had a Live version to show you but everything on internal on the server here. You wouldn't have access unless you were on the VPN.
