Reading XML stored in POST data

[emozley]

Hi,

I am trying to write a web service in ASP classic which will trigger an e-mail alert when XML data is received from a printer.

After much investigation I have found the data is posted with the name "XML_String" and so I can display it in my email by saying

<% = Request.Form("XML_String") %>

I have another web service that works with XML that arrives in a different way and uses the following code:

set docReceived = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM") 
docReceived.async = False 
docReceived.load Request 

'Convert the date to SQL format
SQLDate=DatePart("yyyy", Date()) & "/" & DatePart("m", Date()) & "/" & DatePart("d", Date())

'Use the hostname to get an AssetID 
MakeAndModel = docReceived.getElementsByTagName("sys:DeviceIdentification").item(0).childNodes(0).text
MachineName = docReceived.getElementsByTagName("sys:CustomerInformation").item(0).childNodes(0).text
ControlPanelMessage = docReceived.getElementsByTagName("sys:DeviceInformation").item(0).childNodes(2).text

How can I adapt this so it uses XML_String instead?

Thanks very much

Ed
