Alot of people can ruin javascript without the need for xml :-P

But seriously, XML is data only therefore can not run scripts.

XML:
---------------------------------

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<root>
<jscode>alert('Hi from XML');</jscode>
</root>

---------------------------------
javascript:
---------------------------------

try {
x = new ActiveXObject('Microsoft.XMLDOM');
}
catch(e) {
try {
x = document.implementation.createDocument('', '', null);
}
catch(e) {
alert(e.message);
}
}

if (typeof(x) == 'object') {
x.async = false;
x.load('file.xml');
eval(x.getElementsByTagName('jscode')[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
}

---------------------------------

Hope this helps,

Well there are XML formats like XHTML or SVG which have a script
element. And with Mozilla or Opera you can put an XHTML script element
into other XML formats, a simple example is
http://home.arcor.de/martin.honnen/xml/test2008042202.xml.
However you are much better off in directly using HTML or XHTML for the
complete document, perhaps by transforming your XML to HTML or XHTML
using XSLT.
