selectNodes issue/question Set NodeList = objXMLDoc.selectNodes("/MarketingList/TargetClient/FNAME | LNAME") is this proper syntax? I'm trying to grab both "FNAME" and "LNAME" nodes and combine them into one value with no space in between. Make sense? thanks for ANY help! Started By danthewebguy on Aug 10, 2005 at 12:24:36 PM

danthewebguy on Aug 11, 2005 at 7:45:16 AM (# 4) hmmm - here's my code: ################################################### Dim objXMLDoc, NodeList, Node, s Set objXMLDoc = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM") objXMLDoc.async = False objXMLDoc.load("e:\webroot\ideawwwroot\security\marketinglist.xml") objXMLDoc.setProperty "SelectionLanguage", "XPath" Set NodeList = objXMLDoc.selectNodes("/MarketingList/TargetClient/FNAME|/MarketingList/TargetClient/LNAME") s = "" For Each Node In NodeList s = s & Node.text Next If s = sSourcePage Then response.write "You are a user!" Else response.write "You are NOT a user!" End If ################################################### Now, "sSourcePage" is a variable that I set after trimming the URL - so, for instance, sSourcePage may be "JohnDoe" after someone types in http://www.company.com/johndoe. So, if I say "If s = sSourcePage do this" it should do what I tell it to, right? But that's not working . . . am I missing something? Is it not that easy? :) I really appreciate your input and quick responses - who sent you? :) danthewebguy on Aug 11, 2005 at 7:45:57 AM (# 5) hmmm - here's my code: ################################################### Dim objXMLDoc, NodeList, Node, s Set objXMLDoc = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM") objXMLDoc.async = False objXMLDoc.load("e:\webroot\ideawwwroot\security\marketinglist.xml") objXMLDoc.setProperty "SelectionLanguage", "XPath" Set NodeList = objXMLDoc.selectNodes("/MarketingList/TargetClient/FNAME|/MarketingList/TargetClient/LNAME") s = "" For Each Node In NodeList s = s & Node.text Next If s = sSourcePage Then response.write "You are a user!"

Cut -- I hadn't finished reading the thread. danthewebguy on Aug 11, 2005 at 7:48:26 AM (# 9) geez! I kept getting DB errors when posting this response - sorry about that! danthewebguy on Aug 11, 2005 at 7:58:40 AM (# 10) wait a minute - I did a response.write on the "s" variable before the "for each Node" statement and it was equal to nothing - blank - dead air. But after I do the "For each node . . . " "S" is equal to ALL of the fnames and lnames in my xml file, like one long string of names . . . I'm totally baffled now, of course "s" isn't equal to just one name . . . . :(
