Parser Error Number

[rhull]

I used this EXACT code before and it worked fine but when I use it again for a detailed search I keep getting a Parsing Error of -1072898035. How can I found out what this error means?

Any ideas on what is going on?
Thanks



<%

Sub GetDetails()
'Display Names w/ links
set objXMLDetails = Server.CreateObject(&quot;Microsoft.XMLDOM&quot
set objListDetails = Server.CreateObject(&quot;Microsoft.XMLDOM&quot
objXMLDetails.async = False


strURLDetails = &quot;

http://....&quot;

objXMLDetails.Load(strURLDetails)

'Error occured
If objXMLDetails.parseError.errorCode<>0 Then
Response.Write (objXMLDetails.parseError.errorCode)
Exit Sub
End IF



Set objXMLDetails = Nothing
Set objListDetails = Nothing
End Sub

%>

Also ask:

objXMLDetails.parseError.reason
objXMLDetails.parseError.line
objXMLDetails.parseError.linepos

to get a more detailed errorreport.

Good luck!

thanks!
I found out that the code referred to a DTD(which I CANNOT MODIFY), and it says

&quot;The element 'partytype' is used but not declared in the DTD/Schema&quot;

I looked at the schema (
<!ELEMENT parties (party+)>
<!ELEMENT party (partytype, seq, namefirst, namemiddle, namelast, namesuffix, race, sex)>

So am I not using a correct parser for this or is the DTD not set up right?

You said you've used this code before and it worked. Did you change the DTD afterwards or did you change the xml? Remember that XML is case sensitive, so perhaps the element in your xml is called 'Partytype' and in your schema 'partytype'??

Good luck!

Yeah my code is fine, I just noticed that the DTD had problems all over it.The first XML doc didnt refer to a DTD, but the second one does.

Partytype wasn't defined properly. They forgot
<!ELEMENT partytype(#PCDATA)>
(and other issues too)


Since the XML doc refers to the DTD I cant do much until they fix the problem. (I just pull the XML data from another companies server using xmlHTTP) But I thought I could say obj.validateOnParse= &quot;false&quot; but then it doesn't load the documunt correctly. Can I just override the whole DTD so it isn't used?

Hey thanks again for the tips.
