Well your best bet would be to use an instance of XmlDocument class that gives you a DOM representation of your XML file and add nodes to it according to the structure of your XML. Take a look at the MSDN documentation for the XmlDocument class which provides some examples and many links for further reading.

how to read the content of the XML File when we dont know the nodes.

If you're using DOM to access the XML file you can simply iterate over the child nodes of a given node starting with the document's root node.

Hi all,
i am new to .net technology (and also to XML). please can anyone explain me these:
1.When we are constructing an XML DTD, how can we create an external entity reference in an attribute value?
2.please can u Give some examples of XML DTDs or schemas that we generally have to work with?
3.which type of applications that can benefit from using XML?
Thanks,
Rahi

XML is *great* for configuration files, and, of course, for data exchange between different applications. About every configurable application that exports or imports data will benefit from XML.

Is the following what you are looking for?
File hello.ent contents:
<?xml encoding="UTF-8"?>Hello
File entity.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE greetings [
<!ENTITY greet SYSTEM "hello.ent">
]>
<root>
<say word="&greet;"/>
</root>

Either enable the "Ignore HTML tags in this message" checkbox beneath the smilies or replace all < with <, cause otherwise we see neither your schema nor the xml fragment.

Ok there is the schema, but I don't see your XML file that happens to fail validation.

Hey guys, i'm fearly new to xml (espacially xpath) and need a little help here..
My XML document looks like
<br />
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?><br />
< Properties><br />
< Property><br />
<Number>10</Number><br />
<Type>Type A</TypeNL><br />
<Description>A nice description</Description><br />
</Property><br />
</Properties><br />
(added spaces in front of the Properties and Property element, because else they appear as smiley)
I'm trying to loop through all properties (ofcourse in my xml document there are more than one properties) and would like to retrieve the number, type and description of the property. I'm writing my app in C#
<br />
XPathDocument docRegion = new XPathDocument(_XmlFilePath);<br />
XPathNavigator navRegions = docRegion.CreateNavigator();<br />
XPathNodeIterator nodeProperty = navRegions.SelectChildren("//Properties/Property", "");<br />
I would expect the SelectChildren function to return a collection of all properties in my XML document, but i'm not getting the expected values returned. Am I doing something wrong, do I need a diffrent approach or something??

You can enable the "Ignore HTML tags in this message" checkbox beneath the smilies to easily post XML fragments. Unfortunately this also disables the other formatting possibilities, but most times it's far more practically than inserting spaces or replacing < with <.

Documentation says that SelectChildren selects only directly nested children and the first parameter should be a local name and no XPath expression. So either change the first parameter to "Property" (not sure if this works cause I'm not sure whether "Properties" is the current node of the the XPathNavigator) or use the Select method which allows the use of XPath expressions.

I thought this would filter all html tags which disables me to insert xml

I never thought about it, but the checkbox label could be misinterpreted the way you did. Maybe "Treat HTML tags and there content as plain text" would be more precise.

Hi All,
I am very new to XML domain.
I want to know the importance of "" tag.
What information xml version value(1.0) give to us.
Thanks,

Either check the "Ignore HTML tags in this message" checkbox beneath the smilies or replace all < with <, so we can see what tag you're talking about.
The value of the version attribute tells you exactly what the name implies: the version of the XML standard the document conforms to.

Hi!
Im working with VS2003 — VB.Net. I stuck with problem. When i apply serialization for my class, i cant get element with 2 attrib: one attribute as null (xsi:nil="true") and another - valuable.
Like this : <IndTaxNum ROWNUM="1" xsi:nil="true" />
My code:
' piece of class for serialization
Public Class DBody
' .....................
<System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("IndTaxNum", _
Form:=System.Xml.Schema.XmlSchemaForm.Unqualified, _
IsNullable:=True)> _
Public IndTaxNum() As IndTaxNumColumn
'.....................
End Class
' type IndTaxNumColumn declare
Public Class IndTaxNumColumn
<System.Xml.Serialization.XmlAttributeAttribute()> _
Public ROWNUM As Integer
<System.Xml.Serialization.XmlTextAttribute()> _
Public Value As String
End Class
XML document use for saving table. Not all variables Value have meaning (some of their Nullable).
<IndTaxNum ROWNUM="1" xsi:nil="true" />
<IndTaxNum ROWNUM="2">345453<IndTaxNum/>
<IndTaxNum ROWNUM="3" xsi:nil="true" />
<IndTaxNum ROWNUM="4">767567<IndTaxNum/>
.................
However if set in code:
Value = System.DBNull.Value.ToString or
Value = Nothing or
Value = String.Empty
generating —
<IndTaxNum ROWNUM="1" />
if dont insert value to array IndTaxNumColumn -
<IndTaxNum xsi:nil="true" />
So, what i must set for result:
<IndTaxNum ROWNUM="1" xsi:nil="true" /> ?
thank you!

Hi, I am trying to use XPath in my VC++.NET application to navigate my XML document. But I am getting nothing when I run <code>Select()</code> method of <code>XPathNavigator</code> class. I am posting my XML, XSD and CODE with this message. Can I know what is the problem with this code?
XSD File:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:target="http://www.example.com/name" targetNamespace="http://www.example.com/name" elementFormDefault="qualified">
<element name="name">
<complexType>
<sequence>
<element name="first" type="string"/>
<element name="middle" type="string"/>
<element name="last" type="string"/>
</sequence>
<attribute name="title" type="string"/>
</complexType>
</element>
</schema>
XML File:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<name xmlns="http://www.example.com/name" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.example.com/name name5.xsd" title="Mr.">
<first>John</first>
<middle>Fitzgerald Johansen</middle>
<last>Doe</last>
</name>
VC++.NET code:
XmlDocument* m_myDoc = new XmlDocument();
m_myDoc->Load(S"name5.xml");
XPathNavigator* m_myNav = m_myDoc->CreateNavigator();
m_myNav->MoveToRoot();
XPathNodeIterator* myNodeIte = m_myNav->Select(S"/name");
int cnt = myNodeIte->Count;
I am getting no data from this doce.
Thanks in advance.

The problem is that the name element you're trying to select is in the "http://www.example.com/name" namespace (via xmlns attribute) but your XPath expression looks for a name element in the empty namespace. Use the overload of Select that takes an additional IXmlNamespaceResolver instance. The example of the MSDN topic should give you an idea on how to adjust your code.

Hi
In side my ASPPage I am creating XMLDomDcoument and HTTPRequest Object . I have listed here the Code
Processing flow
1. Loading XML Content from Request Object to XMLDOMDocument
2. Opening our DataCenter Server’s ASP Page by MSXML2.XMLHTTP Object
3. Sending the XMLDOMDocument by MSXML2.XMLHTTP object
<!--#include file="dataCenter.asp"--><br />
<% Set objXMLDocument = CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument")<br />
dataCenter=dataCenter & Mid(Request.ServerVariables("URL"), InStrRev(Request.ServerVariables("URL"), "/")+1) & "?rt=GWAY"<br />
Set objHTTPRequest = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")<br />
objXMLDocument.load(Request)<br />
objHTTPRequest.open "POST", dataCenter, False <br />
objHTTPRequest.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"<br />
objHTTPRequest.send objXMLDocument<br />
ret = objHTTPRequest.responseText<br />
Response.Write ret<br />
Set objXMLDocument = Nothing<br />
Set objHTTPRequest = Nothing<br />
%>
Everything working fine for some time (likely1 hour or 55 minutes ) After that , My Script engine is throwing a Error like
“ Failed to Create Object CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument") “ 
After restarting my webserice, it working fine and come to same status as mention above
I have question on this issue
1. Whether it is VBScript Engine Issue 
2. Whether it is MSXML2.DOMDocument Issue
Thanks in advance
