I have multiple .xml files that I created on python and I want to visualize them as a dynamic network (animation), as they actually are time points of the same network. I found DynNetwork on Cytoscape but it takes a single .xgmml file and I don't know how to actually combine these graphs to make it suitable for DynNetwork. Can you help me on this issue? Or suggest another way for me to visualize these graphs as an animation?

EDIT: you're right, I should've been more specific. It's a protein-protein interaction network, a directed graph and as I've mentioned I want to use multiple of them as different time points and create an animation with nodes appearing and disappearing as they are included on each step.

    $\begingroup$ What graphs? XML is a language, XML files could contain pretty much anything if it's expressed in XML format. Do you have some kind of network data in the XML file? Please edit your question and show us the data and then explain how you want to visualize them. What would the nodes of the network be? What would the edges be? Is this in any way about bioinformatics by the way? $\endgroup$ Commented Jan 14 at 17:44

    $\begingroup$ Please clarify your specific problem or provide additional details to highlight exactly what you need. As it's currently written, it's hard to tell exactly what you're asking. $\endgroup$ Commented Jan 14 at 18:40
  • $\begingroup$ Because this problem / question is related to input formats, please show a small usable example of the .xml files that you're talking about, and ideally an example .xgmml file. This will reduce the need to ask multiple follow-up question to work out the precise format. $\endgroup$ Commented Jan 15 at 6:47

You can see examples of the dynnetwork xggml format at: http://code.google.com/p/dynnetwork/downloads/list As others have stated, it's difficult to provide more information without more description of the format of you XML files.
