XML document using httpget

[GreatSeaSpider]

hi guys,

a script i'm writing needs to access an xml file on another web server which i access using httpget like this:

http://user:pass@www.domain.com/CURRENT.XML

i'm not great at .net so i was wondering if somebody could point me in the right direction

at the moment i'm trying to open it using
XmlDocument.Load()

but its not working!

thanks in advance,

Peter

Peter - little experience in what you're doing but you might consider looking into the XMLTextReader Class (provides fast, forward-only access to the raw data contained within an XML file). May not work here, but you should take a close look at this option.

An idea to get you started:

System.Net.WebRequest wreq = System.Net.WebRequest.Create("[URL unfurl="true"]http://user:pass@www.domain.com/CURRENT.XML");[/URL]
System.Net.WebResponse wres = wreq.GetResponse();
System.IO.Stream sXML=wres.GetResponseStream();
System.Xml.XmlTextReader xmlTR=new System.Xml.XmlTextReader(sXML);

Hope this helps!
