The ASP file generates the XML, so the problem is that the file is being loaded w/o being processed by IIS because I used server.mapPath, which returns the system drive path. So, yes, ASP code is being loaded instead of the XML that needs to be generated. What I'm trying to do is call an ASP page on a web server that generates the XML that I'm trying to load. Since the Load() method is capable of taking a complete URL as the argument, this should be possible. However, now I'm stuck because when I try using the complete URL (http://localhost/myxml.asp) the parser returns with xmldoc.parsed = false and xmldoc.readyState = 3. If I call transformNode, I get an error telling me "The data necessary to complete this operation is not yet available." If I try looping until xmldoc.readyState = 4, it appears that the loop is endless. So, I'm pretty stumped. I'm using the Microsoft transformation example code from the KB: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/xmlsdk30/ht m/xmconusingxslinasp.asp The only things I've changed in the example are the sourceFile and styleFile variables to URLs instead of using server.mapPath. Doesn't anyone out there load XML that's dynamically generated from an ASP page?

It seems you are trying to load an .ASP file not an XML file from your load statement and that obviously will not work. Is your asp that you are trying to load in the a dom docyument generating an xml file? I am confused here can you include the asp file and the xml file code? --- Byron Stuart <Byron.Stuart@k...> wrote: > I'm trying to use the MSXML 4 DOMDocument, but for > some reason, it doesn't > like the XML from my ASP.
