xmlLoadFileLoads an XML file and returns its root node, from which you can read children and attributes. On the server the path is relative to the resource folder (you cannot leave it). On the client it reads the script's own files and then<file>files sent by the server; a":other/file.xml"path points to another resource's file. RememberxmlUnloadFilewhen the document is no longer needed.xmlUnloadFileFrees a document from memory. All its nodes become invalid. Unsaved changes are lost.
