[OpenLayers-Users] remedial help

Hi there, I am new to OpenLayers, and with the help of online resources have
been creating a map. I have a couple of (possibly very clueless) questions.

1) How can I tell what version of OL I am using? I expected, but did not
find this info at the top of  "OpenLayers.js" (I am using a locally saved
version of the "OpenLayers.js" file).

2) In an attempt to create a vector outline around a portion of my map, I
copied code from this example:

http://dev.openlayers.org/releases/OpenLayers-2.10/examples/behavior-fixed-http-gml.html

Everything works well, but when I save a copy of the gml data (polygon.xml)
locally, and change the referenced URL accordingly, I get nothing. I am sure
I am missing some very fundamental concept.

Interestingly, the aforementioned, locally referenced file works well when I
upload it to a web server. I am missing something that is so fundamental
that it is left unstated. 

PS. my map is here: http://www.ctaylorart.net/ol/temp02.html

What I really want to do is to use an SVG file as my base layer, but so far
I have not found an example that I am able to follow.

Thanks
