XML Formatting Guidelines
There are two XML Schemas used for importing contacts.

The first schema: schema_getacctgroupid.xml is used to validate the XML passed to Earnware for validating the account group. The root element, “ValidateAccountGroup” contains one required “Request” node. The “Request” node contains optional child nodes for “WebAccountInfo” and “AccountGroupInfo.”

The “WebAccountInfo” node contains two required nodes: “WebUsername” and “Domain.” The “AccountGroupInfo” node contains two required nodes: “Username” and “Password.”

XML passed to GetEWAcctGroupID.asp must have either a “WebAccountInfo” node or a “AccountGroupInfo” node to return a valid Account Group ID to the request object.

</ElementType>
</Schema>


The second schema: schema_importcontacts.xml is used to validated the contact information to be imported to the account group. The root element, “ImportContacts,” contains a required “Import” node. The “Import” node contains required “AcctGroupID” and “Contact” nodes. The “Contact” node contains optional elements containing contact information and the folder name where the contact will be imported to.

The Import Contact Process:
1. The requesting page first posts to one of the following pages for processing:
· Dev:

http://dev.secure.earnware.com/xml/ImportContacts/GetEWAcctGroupID.asp

· Live:

https://secure.earnware.com/xml/ImportContacts/GetEWAcctGroupID.asp

2. GetEWAcctGroupID.asp validates the Account Holder information and passes back XML to the requesting page with the results of the validation process. If the Account Holder information passes validation, a valid account group ID is passed to the requesting page.
3. If a valid account group ID is passed to the requesting page, the page then posts XML containing the contact information and the import folder name to one of the following pages for processing:
· Dev:

http://dev.secure.earnware.com/xml/ImportContacts/importContacts.asp

· Live:

https://secure.earnware.com/xml/ImportContacts/importContacts.asp

4. If the Import Folder name is empty, a new folder, named “ImportContacts” is created in the Account Holder’s Business Center, if it does not already exisit. Then the contact information is imported into the “ImportContacts” folder.
5. If the Import Folder name is not empty. The application looks for a folder with the name supplied. If the folder exists, the contact is imported to it. If the folder does not exist, it is created and the contact is imported to it.

Test Page:
The test page on Earnware’s Dev server for this application can be found at:

http://dev.secure.earnware.com/xml/ImportContacts/optionalvalidatetest.asp

optionalvalidatetest.asp is a form with input areas for the Account Holder Information for the business center the contact will be imported into, and areas to enter the contact information. The user can either enter the web username and domain OR the accountgroup username and password. The usernames and passwords are assigned, by Earnware, at the time the user signs up for a package, but may be changed by the user at any time. Web domains remain constant, and cannot be changed by the user.

Optionalvalidatetest.asp uses the information submitted in the account holder portion of the form to request an account group id from Earnware by submitting XML to GetEWAcctGroupID.asp. The asp page contains a function, GetEWAcctGroupID, which creates XML from the account holder information submitted in the form, posts the XML, and retrieves an acctgroupid from the response XML:

Can you not use the DOM object? I am sure there will be an error raised if you attach a schema to an invalid document.
