Reading XML over HTTPS into DOM

[Zippeh]

Hi there

I'm trying to read a remote XML file over HTTPS into the DOM in my VBScript. Here is what I have so far...

'Set objXMLDoc = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
Set objXMLDoc = CreateObject("Msxml2.DomDocument")
objXMLDoc.async = False
objXMLDoc.setProperty "ServerHTTPRequest", true
objXMLDoc.load(strWebAddress)

Set Root = objXMLDoc.documentElement

It dies when it gets to the Set Root line. I do have more code but I think this is the only bit that goes wrong.

Any ideas??

Sorry my mistake, the problem with the code is at the bottom of this segment:

'Set objXMLDoc = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
Set objXMLDoc = CreateObject("Msxml2.DomDocument")
objXMLDoc.async = False
objXMLDoc.setProperty "ServerHTTPRequest", true
objXMLDoc.load(strWebAddress)

Set Root = objXMLDoc.documentElement

For Each x In objXMLDoc.documentElement.childNodes

if it is on the server, then
[tt]>Set objXMLDoc = CreateObject("Msxml2.DomDocument")
Set objXMLDoc = [blue]Server.[/blue]CreateObject("Msxml2.DomDocument")
[/tt]

I think I've found the problem! The certificate on the remote server has expired! So I'll contact them and ask them to sort it.
