Convert SOAP to straight XML

[daveofgv]

Hello all,

I have a SOAP XML file that I need to remove the SOAP elements at response time.

What I have at the top is:

?
<soap:Header>
?
<wsa:Action>
xxxxxxx
</wsa:Action>
<wsa:MessageID>xxxxxxxx</wsa:MessageID>
<wsa:RelatesTo>xxxxxxxx</wsa:RelatesTo>
?
<wsa:To>
[URL unfurl="true"]http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/03/addressing/role/anonymous[/URL]
</wsa:To>
?
<wsse:Security>
?
<wsu:Timestamp wsu:Id="Timestamp-4ecfb9d8-1095-48b9-8a60-7aa0838d70a8">
<wsu:Created>2010-03-31T21:00:40Z</wsu:Created>
<wsu:Expires>2010-03-31T21:05:40Z</wsu:Expires>
</wsu:Timestamp>
</wsse:Security>
</soap:Header>
?
<soap:Body>

And at the bottom of the XML file:

</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

When I receive the response from the webservice - is there a way to delete these elements automatically?

Thanks in advanced

Forgot to mention that I am using ASP.

Thank you

I would suppose you've some sort of xmlhttprequest object instantiated and obtained the response. In that case, you can do it like this.
[tt]
'suppose the xmlhttp request object is xmlhttp
if xmlhttp.responsexml.xml<>"" then 'if the response is mal-formed, it would be empty
set oxml=xmlhttp.responsexml
oxml.setProperty "SelectionLanguage", "XPath"
'[blue]modify the namespace uri to your exact case[/blue]
oxml.setProperty "SelectionNamespaces", "xmlns:soap=""[blue][ignore]

http://www.w3.org/2001/12/soap-envelope

[/ignore][/blue]"""
set cnodes=oxml.selectnodes("//soap:Header")
for each onode in cnodes
onode.parentnode.removechild onode
next
end if
'continue of process the oxml with its soap:Header removed.
[/tt]
