Does anyone know an easy way to set up a page in wordpress that will display an external XML feed?

It's an XML Feed of Data from an external source that I want to display on a yet to be created page of my site.
I'll check out magic parser.
Thanks

Yeah, in that case you need something like magic parser, so it knows how to interpret the data contained in the XML file and then display it as you want. Hope that helps some.
An XML feed or an RSS feed?
A random XML feed is much more difficult because you need a php script that you have to set up to know how to interpret the data. http://www.magicparser.com
If the XML file is an RSS feed it's easy because you can use a script that is entirely pre-written http://www.feedforall.com/free-php-script.htm
