<story clientForgive="some rambling">
Now I've been tasked with dealing with a simple XML feed in ASP. I've never
touched ASP before, but I'm quite fluent in JS and some WSH, so it's not
beyond me. I've been all over MSDN like a hot rash and find it the usual
mixture of JS and VBScript. Most examples I find on the web are VBScript.
Ho hum. It's not rocket science (which was part of my degree ;)

So the help I would like, either the defacto guide for the following or what
should be the simple solution.
Any I have the XML response from the following code:
Set xml = Server.CreateObject("Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP.4.0")
xml.Open "GET", psFeedPage, False, UserName, Password
xml.Send
sOutput = xml.responseXML.xml
The response is formed like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<docelement>
<feedoutput>
<result>
<error><![CDATA[0]]></error>
<description><![CDATA[Some data.]]></description>
</result>
</feedoutput>
</docelement>
All I want is a value for error, and a value for description. What I have
googled so far is conflicting and to be honest I don't understand the ASP
errors well.
Should I be using DOMDocument? When I do I can't figure out how to traverse
and pick out values.
