Importing XML
As part of Roundtrip XML, Dreamweaver includes an Import XML command. Like the Export XML command,
Import XML works with Dreamweaver templates. The content information in the XML document
fills out the editable regions in the template, much as data fills out a form in a database.
With this import capability, you can independently create and store content in an XML file and then, if you
want to publish the page to the Web, simply import it into the Dreamweaver template.
