Can anyone tell me the easiest way to capture XML data?

Here's what I know:
From everything I have read, you need a parser to capture the XML file (.rss - I believe) and turn it into text/information on your own site.

Does this sound correct?

Now, can this be accomplished in HTML or do you infact need to be programming in ASP or PHP (depending on your server type) to get this? (I know Javascript is available, but that may be a little more time consuming on my part at this time.)

Any information would be helpful.

ASP and the XMLHTTP object is about the best solution (for Windows servers of course)

Not used it myself as yet but a couple of articles on the subject.
