Hello World.

I'm trying to format and send XML styled text and table layouts to a browser using the XML DOM and ASP 3.0.

I need to:

1. Specify a section of an XML document by its top level node
2. Define the formatting for individual nodes within the section
3. Iterate down the tree to the leaf node presenting any text, lists, links, file references, images or table definitions to the browser and formatting as necessary
4. Fin

It sounds so simple, I'm sure I must be missing something really obvious.

I have the formatting and section specification sorted, I just can't figure out how to use the DOM to iterate down to the leaf node of each child node, writing the text to the screen as I go along, and then move to the next sibling and do the same.

I have tried subroutines within subroutines within for next loops, all to no avail. Can anyone help?? If only for the sake of my sanity.

Muchas gracias!

Hi friend,
I think you have tried lot as your post sound like. From your post I though you have made functions If possible you try for STACK which operate in LIFO manner from DOM you can get whether the node has a child or not if yes then add to stack after adding to stack again check from top any element had child if again push the element else pop the element from this logic you can get each and every node of your XML from your root and implementing STACK you have to do
If possible try this
You can use the loop like this which will give you the childs of node

For cnt = 0 To oNodeList.Item(0).childNodes.length - 1
             Set oNode = oNodeList.Item(0).childNodes.Item(cnt)
                  MsgBox oNode.Text
                  MsgBox oNode.Attributes.getNamedItem("code").Text
             Set oNode = Nothing
         Next
