Read XML thru JSP and...

[bhushan007]

Hi Folks,
I am new to XML. I want to develope a login page which will accept login name
& password. On submit the values are taken thru JSP and should be checked
against data in existing XML file. And then the normal login functionality.
Another is that I have decided a set of XML structure say
<tag1>
<tag2> some data </tag2>
<tag3> some data </tag3>
</tag1>

I want to generate this structure thru JSP & but with different data.
So please help me to achieve this work.
Thanks in advance.

Hi.

An example in JavaScript:

<Script Language=&quot;JavaScript&quot; Runat=&quot;SERVER&quot;>

var uname=Request.Form(&quot;UserName&quot;
var uPwd=Request.Form(&quot;UserPassword&quot;
var sourceFile = Server.MapPath(&quot;loginXML.xml&quot;
var source = Server.CreateObject(&quot;Microsoft.XMLDOM&quot;
source.async = false;
source.load(sourceFile);

var root=source.documentElement;
newNode=source.createNode(1,&quot;user&quot;,&quot;&quot;
root.appendChild(newNode);
var idk=source.getElementsByTagName(&quot;user&quot;
var eor=idk.length;
var lastHozz=root.lastChild;

var newElem = source.createNode(1,&quot;name&quot;,&quot;&quot;
newElem.text=uname;
lastHozz.appendChild(newElem);

var newElem=source.createNode(1,&quot;password&quot;,&quot;&quot;
newElem.text=uPwd;
lastHozz.appendChild(newElem);

source.save(sourceFile);

</Script>

The XML looks like the following:

<loginlist>
<user>
<name></name>
<password></password>
</user>
</loginlist>


I don't advice to use this example, 'case there is no encryption and checking methods. It's only the way of using xml in JavaScript.
