    <p>Anyone have any examples of parsing xml with vbscript? I have a .NET generic list serialized into XML that I'm sending to a classic asp page. I thought I'd be able to use XMLDom, but the libraries don't seem to be installed on the server, so I'm looking for another solution. (Was getting "Object Required: documentElement" error)</p> <p>Basically I'm passing a list of around 15 objects in the form of an xml string that contains a headline and a main article section, and I want to loop through the list and print out both.</p> <p>This was what I had before I found out XMLDom wasn't installed:</p> <pre><code>set xmlDoc=CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM") xmlDoc.async="false" xmlDoc.loadXML(item) Set objFirstChild = xmlDoc.documentElement.firstChild Set objAttributes = objFirstChild.attributes For Each Attr in objAttributes Response.write(Attr.Headline &amp; "&lt;br&gt;") Response.write(Attr.Content &amp; "&lt;br&gt;") Next Response.End </code></pre> <p>Any help appreciated - my VBScript is pretty rusty these days! </p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong> - Tried as well with <code>MSXML2.DOMDocument</code> but ended up with a Object Required error.</p> <p>UPDATE - Sample XML included at request of @ulluoink:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;articles&gt; &lt;article&gt; &lt;newsID&gt;7&lt;/newsID&gt; &lt;headline&gt;This is headline 1&lt;/headline&gt; &lt;content&gt;&lt;![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;This is the start of the main content of the article&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is the next paragraph.&lt;/p&gt; ]]&gt;&lt;/content&gt; &lt;date&gt;04/06/2013 00:00&lt;/date&gt; &lt;/article&gt; &lt;article&gt; &lt;newsID&gt;7&lt;/newsID&gt; &lt;headline&gt;This is headline 2&lt;/headline&gt; &lt;content&gt;&lt;![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;This is the start of the main content of the article&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is the next paragraph.&lt;/p&gt; ]]&gt;&lt;/content&gt; &lt;date&gt;04/06/2013 00:00&lt;/date&gt; &lt;/article&gt; &lt;article&gt; &lt;newsID&gt;7&lt;/newsID&gt; &lt;headline&gt;This is headline 3&lt;/headline&gt; &lt;content&gt;&lt;![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;This is the start of the main content of the article&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is the next paragraph.&lt;/p&gt; ]]&gt;&lt;/content&gt; &lt;date&gt;04/06/2013 00:00&lt;/date&gt; &lt;/article&gt; &lt;/articles&gt; </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
