Hello,

I am trying to use a client's API in order to integrate authentication. The problem that I am having is that it appears that their application was written in java, and the encoding of the XML response is ISO8859_1, an encoding which is not supported by the MSXML active x object. Please see this link for reference:
The problem is, I highly doubt that I will be able to change, or even request to change the encoding of the response xml. Is there another work around for this?

Code:
dim URL, oHttp, result
set oHttp    =  Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
URL = ...
oHttp.open "GET", URL, false
oHttp.send()
Response.write oHttp.getAllResponseHeaders
	
Response.write(oHttp.responseText)

It will first display all of the headers which seem fine. Then i get this error:

msxml3.dll error 'c00ce56e'
System error: -1072896658.

If i navigate to the same URL in my browser, it displays the XML document fine.

Thanks in advance.
 
Do you have a handy example public site jsp that serve out that encoding? I might be curious to test out and that would save much time to search for one.
