[fpc-pascal] XML from a site

Hi all,

Currently working on an app which needs to be able to read an XML from a 
website. Looking at the page at http://wiki.freepascal.org/XML_Tutorial 
it appears there is no way to get XML directly from a URL.

Do I need to pull the page down via :


function GetWebPageContent(const Url: string): String;
var fs: TStringList; HTTP: THTTPSend;
begin
    fs := TStringList.Create;
    HTTP := THTTPSend.Create;
    try
       HTTP.HTTPMethod('GET', Url);
       fs.LoadFromStream(Http.Document);
       Result := fs.Text;
    finally
       fs.Free;
       http.Free;
    end;
end;

Or is there a way to pass an URL to ReadXMLFile?

Thanks in advance!

Chris
