Classic ASP Feed Reader Problem

[GLSmyth]

I am writing a feed reader using Classic ASP and have come across a problem.

Below is the first part of my code, which works just fine for most RSS feeds. However, when I plugged in the value for Feed you see here in the code, the last line bombs with an "Object required" error.

Dim XML, Feed, Text, ItemChild
Feed = "

http://wvs.topleftpixel.com/index_fullfeed.rdf"

set XML = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
XML.Open "GET", Feed, False
XML.Send
set objText = XML.ResponseXML
Set XML = nothing
Set htmlElement = objText.documentElement
Set NodeList = htmlElement.getElementsByTagName("item")

The feed does exist, validates and has <item> elements, so I cannot figure out why I am getting the error.

Any help in understanding where the problem lies would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers -

The reason is that the feed is set to content-type text/html. Hence to load it into dom, you have to do it at the receiving end. Like this.
[tt]
[red]'[/red]set objText = XML.ResponseXML
set objText=server.createobject("msxml2.domdocument")
objText.LoadXml XML.ResponseText
[/tt]
assuming well-formedness etc and all that.
