What do I do with all this XML?


I crawled/scraped my favorite forum and rounded up 850 XML files of 5-6k lines each.

I was using XSL transformations in Firefox but it seems to have been disallowed due to a cross origin scripting attack using local files, so now only external resources can be used if http.

Basically I need an alternative means of visualization to convert my xml into something readable.

I have a simple structure

where Article is an actual HTML Article tag (so it should parse to HTML already)

Any suggestions what to do?

Use an XML editor like xmlspy or write a console app in your preferred programming language.

Perhaps use the command line program xsltproc instead of Firefox.
