You can usually assign values to the view from the controller like that:

$this->view->field = $value;

Each action is usually associated to a view script (a template), for instance action.phtml. You can output the value of the fields you have set in the action, something like

<?php echo $this->field; ?>

wherever you need in the script.

You can have a look at the view scripts documentation for further information.

To piggy back on what dinopmi said you probably dont want to parse the XML directly in the view. Instead you want to handle this in a custom View Helper or directly in the controller before passing it to the view.

The View Helper solution is more complex but its more reusable and its probably the more correct of the two solutions. You can read more about creating your own View Helpers in the documentation.
