Hi,

I have a database with lots of information about a person, like his
address etc.

Now i have that information stored in 3 datasets i must get these 3
into a XMLHTTP...

This part is what i don`t get. I`ll try to use AJAX for this
webapplication, but who can i do these things??

Can somebody help me??

Thanks very much,

Hi,

you can have an .aspx page which will convert the datasets into an xml
format that your javascript can parse. set the mimetype to 'text/xml'. you
can then send an xmlhttp request to the aspx page to get the response in the
form of xml.

It is a simple matter of pulling data into a dataset (plenty of examples on
the web). You can then send that data across the wire as XML. If you
download the Atlas library from www.asp.net, you can use it for your XMLHTTP
without having to write the infrastructure yourself (sample code included
with download). Another method is to set up a webservice, but this will not
be async. To set up a web service, simply add a web service file to your
ASP.NET app.
