Making movies with XML

QuickTime's XML support
You can use an XML database to dynamically provide content for QuickTime movies and to control their behaviors.
QuickTime can access data from an external XML file or from XML data stored in the movie itself. Typically, you'll
use an external XML file—an external file lets you update the movie by simply updating the external file.
QuickTime's XML support is property-driven instead of attribute-driven; you can create tags (for example, the source
tag: <src>) but the tags don't have attributes. To add data to a tag, add it as a property (for example,
<src>mymovie.mov</src>).
To create or edit an XML list
Before you create an XML List movie, you need to create the XML list (database) that the movie will use.
1
Do one of the following:
To create a list, choose Movie > New XML List.
To open an existing XML file, choose Movie > Open XML List.
2
Click the Source tab, enter the data for the source and information tags, and then save the document.
