As far as I know,We can embed XML blocks in HTML.These blocks are called XML island.

Blocks (called islands) of Extensible Markup Language (XML) embedded in an HTML document. Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 and newer versions support embedding the XML data inside HTML pages. This is called XML island.
XML data islands can be accessed from client-side scripts or directly to bound to HTML elements.

When XML was first gaining acceptance, there was an increasing need to be able to embed "islands" of data inside HTML pages. In Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5.0 and later, these data islands can be written in XML.

Hi,

An XML data island is XML data embedded into an HTML page.

example:

<html>
<body>
<xml id="cdcat" src="cd_catalog.xml"></xml>
<table border="1" datasrc="#cdcat">
<tr>
<td><span datafld="ARTIST"></span></td>
<td><span datafld="TITLE"></span></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

The datasrc attribute of the <table> tag binds the HTML table to the XML data island.

The <span> tags allow the datafld attribute to refer to the XML element to be displayed. In this case, "ARTIST" and "TITLE". As the XML is read, additional rows are created for each <CD> element.

Regards,
Karthik

What is an XML data island? Simply stated it is data in the form of XML embedded in an HTML document. By embedding XML data you create an XML data island, thereby storing your data on the client. This is not good enough. You also want to know how to access it. The HTML elements on the page can be bound to the XML data island and make them come to life, on the client. In reality an XML data island represents a built-in Data Source Object in the IE browser. This means you do not need <object/> tags to embed the control.
