    I have an xml file that is structured like so.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
    <MapPoints>
    <MapPoint PointID="1">
    	<LocationName></LocationName>
    	<LocationAddress></LocationAddress>
    	<LocationURL></LocationURL>
    	<LocationExt></LocationExt>
    	<LocationFax></LocationFax>
    	<LocationLat></LocationLat>
    	<LocationLong></LocationLong>
    	<LocationMarker></LocationMarker>
    </MapPoint>
    <MapPoint PointID="2">
    	<LocationName></LocationName>
    	<LocationAddress></LocationAddress>
    	<LocationURL></LocationURL>
    	<LocationExt></LocationExt>
    	<LocationFax></LocationFax>
    	<LocationLat></LocationLat>
    	<LocationLong></LocationLong>
    	<LocationMarker></LocationMarker>
    </MapPoint>
    </MapPoints>


    This XML file will contain multiple 's. I'm not very familiar with using javascript to read an xml file and use the data as needed.

    I'm wanting to populate a Google Map using XML and JS.
