Following is incorrect in XML, because '<' has very restricted usage: <tag> <% echo Date("d.m.Y") %> </tag> If you use <?php instead, it is perfect XML and you can use any XML editor or other tool to work with document: <tag> <?php echo Date("d.m.Y") ?> </tag> ----------------------------------------------------------------- Jirka Kosek e-mail: jirka@kosek.cz http://www.kosek.cz
