<br></div>
I am assuming that your application will run off a server? If so, then no problem putting the data as xml file on that server and using http to access it (eg, that is how you normally fetch GML).<br>
<br>
If you are working "server-less" then its a whole different ball game. For starters you will need to use a script protocol to get around browser security restrictions on local files. To make your life easier, if at all possible use a server. If you can feed your data to a spatial database like PostGIS and extract with WMS/WFS server like geoserver or mapserver, then it will be easier still.<br>
