Can anyone please tell

This is what I am trying without success.

      Dim a As New MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP40
      Dim URLstr As String
      URLstr = "http://ab/cd/ec/temp.asp"

There's a similar thread regarding this topic over in ASP XML. Take a look there and see if that's any help.

Thanks it worked.
In VB Code Server.HTMLEncode can be used, but not in VB.NET and I feel because of this there is a problem.

The problem is that it looses all the formatting of tha data (Like it removes spaces, takes "=" as assignment rather than literal string and does not fetch further data)

Thanks for helping.

You shouldn't be using HTML encode. That's used to encode for display. You want to use URLEndode for posting the data.

I tried using URLEncode in the ASP page. It worked. But how do I read/save it later, as I cannot process URLEncoded XML.

Have you tried processing it yet? When it comes in from the Request object, it should be all decoded for you. Just like query string values are already decoded when you use URLEncode. You just need to have your ASP page get the value with "Request.Form('myXMLData')" and you should be all set.

How you save it is up to you. You'll need to put it into some sort or persistant medium: file or database are your most likely options. Easiest to use a database. It depends on what your "further processing" will be.

Thanks all of you for help.
Found the solution.

Hi. I am able to post XML data but when I read/fetch it in ASP, It does not preserve white spaces(infact any characters apart from numbers and alphabets.)

Thanks for help.
