    Default

    i used ServerXMLHTTP that failed to load the xml, showing

    XML load failed: XML document must have a top level element.

    the xml actually having top level element in the response xml that i could see. i assume
    it is not get loaded here.

    below is the code i wrote

    Code:
    <%
    req=request.Form("xml") '// i changed the form ACTION to this page
    
    Set httpObj = Server.CreateObject("msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP")
    httpObj.Open "POST", "serverurl/xml_req_parser.php", False
    httpObj.Send req
    
    
    
    Set xmlObj = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
    '//xmlObj.Load httpObj.ResponseXML
    xmlObj.Load httpObj.ResponseXML.xml
    
    
    if xmlObj.parseError.reason <> "" then
       Response.Write "XML load failed: " & xmlObj.parseError.reason & "<br>"
       response.end
    else
        response.Write "load success"
    end if
    
    set rootObj=xmlObj.getElementsByTagName("Rooms")
    
    response.Write rootObj.length
    %>
