Dynamic updation

[DragonPrince]

Is it possible to dynamically update a XML file?
ie if a user is filling a form then is it possible to save these data automatically inside an existing XML file.

I've not tried it myself but I believe Altova's Authentic product can do this sort of thing:

Let us know how you get on, as feedback on whether this product meets this need would be very useful.

Thanks for ur help.
I used php to link the XML file and by using the DOM concept i was able to update the the XML file dynamically.

Thanks for feeding back DragonPrince. It's always useful to know how someone solved a problem. I posted in haste and assumed you didn't want to get your hands dirty i.e. by directly manipulating the DOM.
