seeing xml in web page

[tag141]

I am creating an xml file from an ASP page which is then viewed in a HTML page inside a table. It all works really well, in fact too well. Everytime I add data from the ASP page it adds another record in the table and shows all entries in the xml file. However I would only like to show the most recent record.

Is this possible? and if it is can you point me to a possible solution/tutorial

TIA.

Try this:

previous post assumes you are using xsl - in which case you could use

xml:

<root>
<myelement>one</myelement>
<myelement>two</myelement>
</root>

<xsl:value-of select="/root/myelement[position()=last()]"/>

or, depending on how you are creating the xml

<xsl:value-of select="/root/myelement[position()=1]"/>

if, however you are using dom - then use the same xpath to get to the element
