Answer 1

I use XML Island on the Browser end.
Browser
<XML id="xmlDSO"></XML>
xmlDSO.async = false;
xmlDSO.load("Source.xml");
/The source could be jsp as well but it should return xml in html/text format. SHould not have any HTML tags.
Do the processing using IE XML
Then
<FORM>
<INPUT NAME=xmlFIELD>
</FORM>
In
function subForm() {
form.xmlFIELD.value = xmlDSO.xml
form.submit()
In the servlet you should be able to receive the xml in a String.
Which you can process.
I have go so far as the getting XML into DOM.
But I started getting into problem once I started using XPATH on the DOM.
XPATH only takes Node as input. I need to get the DOM so I can start passing the NODE.
If you don't need to use XPATH, you should be able to get to the stage where I am.
