    How do you secure XML

    I am using xml as a database, but would like to secure it. You can access the xml page by just typing in the url to it.. so that is a concern..

    Is there anyway to do this?

    one way would be to encrypt the xml data when the file is written - thats if its written dynamically by php for example, otherwise you could look into protecting your directory with htaccess.

    good idea Sherrif! for some strange reason I had not thought of that. I think a simple encryption using flash to store the data in the xml should work just fine! thanks!
