Definitely. Most server-side data is generated like this: the script
which interrogates the database is called on-the-fly and outputs its
output back to the browser. You still get to do the parsing client-
side, but it doesn't involve writing an XML file on the server -- the
output goes straight back to the client browser. The advantage is that
there is far less chance of clashing server files, nothing to clear up
afterwards, and it's slightly faster.
