I dug up an old example from this site for handling xml fragments of escape-outputted text.

I need to use msxml 6, and I get an error message "C# is not a scripting language". I tried to switch to Javascript but I can't seem to get the syntax right - get error messages like "can't find 'System' etc. Can someone throw me a bone in JScript?

<ms:script language="C#" implements-prefix="cs"><![CDATA[

XPathNodeIterator parse(String strXML)
{
System.IO.StringReader rdr = new System.IO.StringReader(strXML);
XPathDocument doc = new XPathDocument(rdr);
XPathNavigator nav = doc.CreateNavigator();

XPathExpression expr;
expr = nav.Compile("/");

XPathNodeIterator iterator = nav.Select(expr);

return iterator;
}
]]>
</ms:script>

Hi Steve,
msxml 6 doesn't support C# (or VB.NET) as a scripting language; it supports JavaScript and VBScript, but in this case you should convert the code to use the JavaScript syntax...

ok, but I'm really stumped on how to write the javascript, and trolling through almost useful web search results is not helping much.

I try to change the first line to:
var rdr = new StringReader(strXml);
or
StringReader rdr = new StringReader(strXml)
or
System.IO.StringReader...

but none of these approaches work.

All I can find on the web and on this board are C# examples which are not helpful, and I can find anything useful for javascript syntax anywhere for msxml. I don't mind going off and learning how to do this, but I'm really stumped for an example.

Hi Steve,
if you don't want to learn JavaScript, you should probably switch to use the .NET XSL processor, that can process C# scripts.

Hope this helps,
Alberto
