Controlling an XML file from within txp? Is it possible?

I have a little revolving flash info area which shows an image, a message and links to a page. It’s controlled by an xml file which lists the path info for the image, the title and the link destination.

I was just wondering if anyone has a good idea how txp could be used to control its content and write to this file?

Or does someone know of a ready-made customisable php solution which I could set up as a separate page for the client to enter this information into form fields and have the file written?

Yes, it is. Have a look at the blogmap

The blogs for this map are submited by bas_lets_see_yours

This plugin delivers a xml which is read by the blogmap-register-script.

The methode is very similar to the one you requested.

Thanks for the pointer, bastian. I’ll have a look at your source code and see if I can learn something from it.
