Re: Detecting MSXML

Try to create a "new ActiveXObject"  with a ProgId available only in the in the
MSXML3 Tech Preview/Beta.

For example:
"MSXML2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.3.0"

Using error-trapping, test whether the operation succeeds.

Trouble is, I think you can't tell which release you've got (Jan, March, May,
July 2000).

An alternative is to use the FileSystemObject, to test for the existence of
msxml3.dll (probably in windows/system),
with the appropriate FileVersion information.

But you can only do that if the user lets you use the "unsafe" FileSystemObject
in your script.

You could, of course, do both...

Thanks,
Martin
