Hi,

Can we create xml or modify xml at the client side?

If yes, how?

Any one has the answer/knowledge. pls reply.

Absolutely! You can use a text editor, or a WYSIWYG program like Amaya.

The question is, which XML language do you want to work with: an established one, or one you've built? And if it's established, which one is it?

That will determine, somewhat, what kind of programs you use. Personally, I use Amaya to create XHTML, then I hand-edit it with Microsoft's WordPad.

Is that what the question is asking ... or did you want to know how to generate XML output, or dynamically edit an existing XML document, from within a client-side script ?

[Sumit]

Yes I want to know how to generate XML output, or dynamically edit an existing XML document, from within a client-side script (JavaScript) ?

Within a script, your best bet is the Document Object Model.

I'm also looking at doing this, the thing i would like to know is it possible for the file to be edited then saved without having to use a sever sider language.

You may have to use the File System Object- I dont know any really good tutorials though.
