XML won't work on my computer

[michele]

Ok, I'm gonna be very honest about this.

I'm trying to make my (very, very) first XML steps.

So I downloaded the example files from FM but they don't work on my mac.

Why ?

Do I have to put a plug-in ?

Is there a place on the web where I can find a 'great' tutorial for working with FM and XML, or is there a good book.

I found good websites yet to learn XML, like www.topxml.com

The manual and FM-site all sound a bit vague to me.

Thankyou for reading and eventually answering my very newbee question.

First, define "won't work". What examples are you trying? What OS version of Mac? What browsers (if any)?

I find that some of the examples have only been tested on Windows Internet Explorer, if the output is to the browser. But as far as any import or export, FileMaker Pro 6's implementation is very good. The "plug-in" called, appropriately, XML, is already installed with FileMaker Pro 6.
