java operating on HTML/XML

Hello,

I wish to create a program that is reading and changing a XML sight

So I wonder if you know how it is possible to this

Or how does it work with HTML? (it must be similar) Just so I get an idea,

how to fix this..:)

Any help or references would be gratefully accepted

The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a W3C-recommended general-purpose markup language for creating special-purpose markup languages, capable of describing many different kinds of data. It is a simplified subset of SGML. Its primary purpose is to facilitate the sharing of data across different systems, particularly systems connected via the Internet. Languages based on XML (for example, RDF, RSS, MathML, XHTML, SVG, and cXML) are defined in a formal way, allowing programs to modify and validate documents in these languages without prior knowledge of their form.

Thanks!

Encore un francais qui parle l'anglais avec ce que ca comporte. But i'm very interested about what you want to do with your xml for, because i don't understand why you want to parse xml.

..je ne parles pas francais, Excuze moi..

It is an RSS that I must do

As I understand the XML has several feeds that contains a certain number of

items

A GUI is to be made where a user can for example, where clicking "update" would

mean parse the XML, and check for new items and add them to a certain list.

There is one thing I don't understand is how to do this: user should be able

to add a feed. I thought the feeds and XML cooperation was something automatically

done from the source of the feeds. hmm aha maybe the GUI is ment to be used by the source of the feed. So in detail to add a feed: would mean add an item with it's corresponding <title><link><description>, right?
