Client side XML works but server side does not

[MarcusH]

Hi,

I'm having a problem with getting code which works on the client side to work on the server in ASP.

This code works:

<script language=&quot;VBScript&quot;>

set xmldoc = CreateObject(&quot;Microsoft.XMLDOM&quot
xmldoc.async=False
xmldoc.Load (&quot;clientList.xml&quot

set element = xmldoc.getElementsByTagName(&quot;clients&quot

for each theItem in element
document.write theItem.getAttribute(&quot;lastName&quot &&quot;<br>&quot;
next

</script>

But this does not

<%
Response.buffer=true
Response.ContentType=&quot;text/xml&quot;

set xmldoc = Server.CreateObject(&quot;Microsoft.XMLDOM&quot
xmldoc.async=False
xmldoc.Load Server.MapPath(&quot;clientList.xml&quot

set element = xmldoc.getElementsByTagName(&quot;clients&quot

for each theItem in element
Response.write theItem.getAttribute(&quot;lastName&quot &&quot;<br>&quot;
next

%>

Your help on this would be very much appreciated
Marcus

How does it not work? Is there an error message?

This would be more appropriate in the ASP forum.

Ok thanks. I'll put this into the ASP forum along with the answer to your question.
