changing XML with clientside script 1

[earme]

Is it possible to modify xml with clientside vbscript or javascript. I'd like to change the attributes of a couple nodes depending on their values. Is this possible? If so how do I do it? Any websites with good examples?

Thank you,
Earme

Change it how? If you mean changing the file itself on your server then the answer is absolutely not. Nothing on the client side can make changes on the server side. If you want to change actual docs on the server you will need to use server side scripting.

If you just want to change what is displayed, then there are any number of ways to do that on the client side. JavaScript, VB Script, C-Side ASP, XSL.... you get the idea.

yes you can using getAttribute and setAttribute
devguru.com has some nice examples
