AJAX XML tree without server-side language

I need to make a nodes tree from data.xml file (as here link text) with AJAX.

Is it possible to do this without the server programming language?

I can get the whole data.xml file (all nodes) - but I need to load nodes dynamically (depending on the current tree开发者_Go百科 view).

Without any server side programming, you can only get the entire XML file (through an XmlHttpRequest) and work on it on the client side. If the file is not huge, this should not be a problem, though.

Once you have the file, there are ways of dealing with it and querying it for a specific node. How you do this specifically depends on various factors, but since your question provides no context in this regard, this is hard to tell.
