[thelist] POSTing XML from an ASP page?

[Chris Clark]

Microsoft has a server object that you can call and create xml with.
here is a link at msdn
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/xmlsdk30/htm/xmobjxmlhttprequest.asp

I have use the component to create and manipulate xml files both in memory
and as written to disk.
With this component You have the usual createNode, appendChild,
set/getAttribute functions needed.

Hope this helps
