I am working on a project with which we are getting an xml page from the internet, and I need to display the data in a grid.

I am having several problems doing this and being that I am unfamiliar with XML, it is not helping any.

Every attempt to bind the data from the xml is returned with errors because of the way it is formed.

Here is an example of the xml:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no" ?>
  <!DOCTYPE ALLQUOTEREQUEST (View Source for full doctype...)>
- <ALLQUOTEREQUEST xmlns="http://www.aghost.net" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.aghost.net allquoteRequest.xsd">
- <ALLQUOTEREQUEST_ROW>
  <LAST>109.750000</LAST>
  <CHG>-0.375</CHG>
  <OPENINT>13703</OPENINT>
  <CLOSE>0.000000</CLOSE>
  <VOLUME>3054</VOLUME>
  <DESC>Feeder Cattle</DESC>
  <SYM>FC5Q</SYM>
  </ALLQUOTEREQUEST_ROW>

It doesn't like the first two lines at all, and the little dashes make it error also. When I take out the first two lines, remove everything after the "<ALLQUOTEREQUEST" in the third line, and remove the dashes it databinds great. Any suggestions?

You can't view or consume XML unless it's XML. This isn't XML, it's something else, so no XML tools are going to be any use until you get it fixed.

Well, I figured something was wrong with it, and that is why it didn't work. Is this just bad XML, or nothing like xml at all?

Actually, I suspect that what you are doing is trying to copy and paste what the browser is displaying. The browser isn't showing you the actual file, it's showing a visual representation of the file intended for human consumption. If you do what it suggests, and View Source, you will probably get the real XML. Better still, rather than screen-scraping off the browser, just tell your XSLT processor to read from the URL directly.

Also, I DID NOT generate this. This is what is sent back to use after submitting our authentication information.

See, I new you were the MAN. You are exactly right. I don't know how to do what you are suggesting, because we have to submit our info via a submit button with hidden form elements in it to get this.
