Javascript variable

[contiw]

Hello!

I have this var
myVar=new Date(2003,2,12,17,18,12);

alert(myVar)
returns "Wed Mar 12 17:18:12 PST 2003"

Is it possble to get the literal string
"new Date(2003,2,12,17,18,12)"
instead of the formed date?

All the best.

myVar is actually an array element tranformed for semplicity, and it comes from a chunk of XML code which
comes from a database query. Cannot touch that.

Can someone please provide an example of how to achieve this...I have an XML file:

----------------------
<?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot;?>
<top>
<Process>
<Location>\\test_machine\test</Location>
<Gauge>LOG</Gauge>
<Filter>10</Filter>
</Process>
<Process>
<Filter>45</Filter>
<Location>\\test_machine\again</Location>
<Gauge>TXT</Gauge>
</Process>
<Process>
<Location>\\test_machine\more</Location>
<Gauge>HKE</Gauge>
<Filter>20</Filter>
</Process>
<Process>
<Location>\\test_machine\one</Location>
<Gauge>LTX</Gauge>
<Filter>999</Filter>
</Process>
</top>
-------------------
How would I do this if I wanted something on the &quot;Process&quot; line, for example:

<Process Name=&quot;This test&quot;>
<Location>\\test_machine\one</Location>
<Gauge>LTX</Gauge>
<Filter>999</Filter>
</Process>

I can already get the Location, Gauge and Filter to work bu I want to be able to identify the Parent value too.

Now, when I process I want to display the &quot;This test&quot; on the &quot;Process&quot; node. I am using JavaScript (JScript) on Windows Scripting Host and the MS DOM object.

Can that be done? If so, can you provide some an example on that?

Any assistance would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks
