Uses of XML?

[Mothra]

What exactly are the uses of XML? What can be done with XML that cannot be done with ASP, HTML, or DHTML? I really don't know much about it (obviously).

Basically XML is like a plain database. It is only made to hold data and nothing more. All data in the XML file will be stored as a text in a structure. So we can say that XML does nothing, its only purpose is to store data.
