Ok. Here's the situation -- the Armory is filled with a lot of useful information. All of this information appears to be in an XML document, which then in turn is rendered into an "XHTML Transitional" document through the use of an XSL stylesheet. My problem is, I'd like to get the XML document before the transformation happens. This is mainly to expand a sidebar component of my personal website ([url=http://darkhelm.org]DarkHelm.org[/url], down the right side of the page) to be able to retrieve data directly from the Armory XML documents for my characters, to reflect character level increases automatically -- not much more than that, really, just something I thought would be cool to have automated, rather than me having to go in and update my internal data structure to reflect the new levels of my characters.

So, here is my problem -- whenever I retrieve the XML documents for my characters specifically, they come already XSL transformed. However, when I "view source" in either IE or FireFox, I can see the XML documents underlying the page, rather than the results of the transformation into XHTML -- which tells me it is possible to get the XML document without transforming it. But how?

My website is hosted by a company that only has PHP 4.4.0 on it, so a PHP 5.0 solution isn't going to work. It does have Expat, version 1.95 installed in it, so I have some rudimentary XML capabilities (Here's my [url=http://darkhelm.org/php-tester.php]phpinfo[/url] if interested). I have recently lost shell access to the server -- a policy change on their part which has infuriated me, however I don't have the resources currently to move to a different web host at this time.

I know there has to be a way to parse/process the XML document natively without all of the XSL transformation garbage. It would be a simple matter, once I can actually read the XML document into my code, to be able to parse out the information I seek.

Any help would be appreciated.
