Ok, so after much headache of not getting the messages to appear I came to realize that this method is not the most efficient. Not say that it does not work but when it comes to efficiency, using a database trumps.

I says this for two reasons (and I believe this issue was addressed in the comments before):
1) You are updating and reading one xml file. If more that one person is visiting the site at the same time and hit submit, its by chance whose message will get inserted in the file.
2) Your web browser stores the xml file in its cache memory (temp internet files). So even though your submission may work and update the xml file it wont be displayed because the browser is showing the contents of the xml file in its cache memory.

So, In my opinion to avoid all that just go the database route if your server allows it. You can use the same code from this tutorial with only a few changes and new sendData function.

So I got this to work for me except one thing. Every time I hit submit nothing will come up on the posted messages side. But when I refreshed the page it showed up.
After hours of testing this and that I decided to absolute URLs. That did the trick. The PHP script needs that full url to work properly. Hope this will help someone.

Hope this is alright.
Thanks,
