ASP reading XML

D

David C

I have an ASP classic site that needs to add the option of reading an XML
file send back from another web site and parsing it into a multi-column HTML
table. The server is Windows Server 2003. Can anyone direct me to where I
might find more info on this? Thanks.

Basically start at the ServerHTTPXml object (Xml parser 3 or 4)... This
object can do gets and puts and all http verbs including fetches of XML...

I want to be able to read the XML file (using ADO hopefully) and not
just dump it to an HTML table, but add a checkbox for the user to select
that particular row and go get an image based on the unique ID in the
XML row. Does this change where I need to look for a solution? I read
the ServerXMLHTTP info. but could not figure out how it was "reading"
the XML file. Thanks.

It reads it into a string (buffer) and that can be used to parse in a Dom
document.
But yes, you also could use ADODB.STream to read XML from a server.
