hi
I have tried to get some variable through xmlhttp object but i get the following error :S

The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A name was started with an invalid character. Error processing resource 'http://127.0.0.1/test/test4.asp'. Line 48, Positi...

else if (document.all&&document.readyState=="complete")
----------------------^

and the code is:

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<%

Response.ContentType = "text/xml"

dim objXMLHTTP

set objXMLHTTP = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")

objXMLHTTP.Open "GET", "http://127.0.0.1/test/test6.html?class=Template34TableTT", false

objXMLHTTP.SetRequestHeader "Content-type", "text/xml"

objXMLHTTP.Send

Response.Write objXMLHTTP.ResponseText

%>

<%

if Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_METHOD") = "GET" then

end if
%>
</body>

</html>

Do you get that same error if you load
http://127.0.0.1/test/test6.html?cla...plate34TableTT
directly in your browser?

Try changing
Response.Write objXMLHTTP.ResponseText
To
Response.Write "<textarea>" & objXMLHTTP.ResponseText & "</textarea>"
see if that throws an error

Also you don't need
objXMLHTTP.SetRequestHeader "Content-type", "text/xml"
But I doubt it's doing anything bad - try removing it though.

The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.

else if (document.all&&document.readyState=="complete")
----------------------^

and this the area where this error is given:

else if (document.all&&document.readyState=="complete")
{
document.all.LayerTT.innerHTML=text
document.all.LayerTT.style.pixelLeft=event.clientX+document.body.scrollLeft+offsetx
document.all.LayerTT.style.pixelTop=event.clientY+document.body.scrollTop+offsety
document.all.LayerTT.style.visibility="visible"
}
else if (document.layers)
{
document.LayerTT.document.nstip.document.write('<b>'+text+'</b>')
document.LayerTT.document.nstip.document.close()
document.LayerTT.document.nstip.left=0
currentscroll=setInterval("scrolltip()",100)
document.LayerTT.left=e.pageX+offsetx
document.LayerTT.top=e.pageY+offsety
document.LayerTT.visibility="show"
}
}
i cant imagine whats going wrong
