Created xml from ASP... cannot retrieve with objXML.Load

[simonB2006]

k, so I was retrieving a standard xml file with the ASP code in 'reader.asp' (below) .. works fine.

Then instead of having a fixed xml file, i wanted to generate the xml from another .asp script, so I created 'dynamicXML.asp' (also below) to generate xml.

When i view 'dynamicXML.asp' direclty in the browser it displays as a proper XML file. However, when i point 'reader.asp' at it ... nothing happens !!

Does anyone know why my reader.asp will not read the xml output of my dynamic xml page ??

Many thanks !!



------------------ reader.asp ----------------------
<%
Set objXML = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
objXML.async = False
objXML.Load (Server.MapPath("xmlSample.xml"))
Set objLst = objXML.getElementsByTagName("*")
StrFieldname = ""
StrFieldvalue = ""
For i = 0 to (objLst.length - 1)
StrFieldname = StrFieldname & " : " & objLst.item(i).nodeName
' StrFieldvalue = StrFieldvalue & " : " & objLst.item(i).text
Next
response.write StrFieldname
%>


------------- dynamicXML.asp ----------------------
<%
' --- generate s_out from script -- '

s_out = "<?xml version='1.0'?><Order><Account>123</Account><Item id='1'><SKU>1234</SKU><PricePer>5.95</PricePer><Quantity>100</Quantity><Subtotal>595.00</Subtotal><Description>Super Widget Clamp</Description></Item></Order>"

response.ContentType="text/xml"
Response.write s_out
%>

What do you mean by it?

Where in reader1.asp, you see 'xmlSample.xml' on line 3, i changed this to 'dynamicXML.asp'.

SO instead of loading a static xml file, i wanted to load the dynamic xml output of 'dynamicXML.ap'

Does that help ?

In that case, you have to "recursively" call to your site (which may cause some problem without proper setting.) The start would be this.
[tt]
<%
dim surl,ohttp,s
response.contenttype="text/xml"
surl="http://[green]yoursite/subdir/[/green]dynamicxml.asp"
set ohttp=server.createobject("msxmls.serverxmlhttp")
with ohttp
.open "get",surl,false
.send
s=.responsetext
end with
set ohttp=nothing
response.write s
%>
[/tt]

thanks for that (sorry for delay!).
Think this calls for a re-working of my solution so will try with new thread as very different !

Hope you don't mind ..after you effort in replying, but to cut a long story short i think i'm going up the wrong avenue here !!
