With the
XML DSO you can embed XML data in your html pages. There are many examples
on how to use the XML DSO to embed data in your web pages. However you

A
java applet that serves the XML data is shipped with the Internet Explorer

ID="DS"
WIDTH="0"
HEIGHT="0"
MAYSCRIPT="true">
<PARAM NAME="URL" VALUE="yourXMLFile.xml">
</APPLET>

specifies the package where the code to access the XML file is available.
The XML data from the file specified in the 'param' tag is got by the
XML DSO and it parsed and this data is bound to the html page in the
areas defined.
