How can I check the security of the XML file or change it or move it?
I can view it in a browser and can display it in the (see successful
code below) .aspx via the browser (?)
The error notes the applicant.xml file.... should I have that as
another xml file on my site in addition to menu.xml?
Again this is the sample code from the website you sent:
<%@ Page language="vb"%>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.XML" %>
<html><head>
<script language="VB" runat="server" ID=Script1>
Sub btnReadXML_OnClick(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
'Read and display existing file
ReadXML(Server.MapPath("menu.xml"))
End Sub
Sub btnWriteXML_OnClick(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
Try
Dim enc as Encoding
'Create file, overwrite if exists
'enc is encoding object required by constructor
'It is null, so default encoding is used
Dim objXMLTW as new XMLTextWriter(Server.MapPath("applicant.xml"),
enc)
objXMLTW.WriteStartDocument
'Top level (Parent element)
objXMLTW.WriteStartElement("Applicant")
'Child elements, from request form
objXMLTW.WriteStartElement("Name")
objXMLTW.WriteString(Request("txtName"))
objXMLTW.WriteEndElement
objXMLTW.WriteStartElement("Address")
objXMLTW.WriteString(Request("txtAddress"))
objXMLTW.WriteEndElement
objXMLTW.WriteStartElement("City")
objXMLTW.WriteString(Request("txtCity"))
objXMLTW.WriteEndElement
objXMLTW.WriteStartElement("State")
objXMLTW.WriteString(Request("txtState"))
objXMLTW.WriteEndElement
objXMLTW.WriteStartElement("Zip")
objXMLTW.WriteString(Request("txtZip"))
objXMLTW.WriteEndElement
objXMLTW.WriteEndElement 'End top level element
objXMLTW.WriteEndDocument 'End Document
objXMLTW.Flush 'Write to file
objXMLTW.Close
'Display File Just Created
ReadXML(Server.MapPath("applicant.xml"))
Catch Ex as Exception
lblXMLFile.Text = "The following error occurred: " & Ex.Message
End Try
End Sub
Sub ReadXML(FileName as String)
Try
lblXMLFile.Text =""
Dim objXMLTR as new XMLTextReader(FileName)
dim sCategory as String
dim bNested as Boolean
dim sLastElement as String
Dim sValue as String
'Read method loops through the XML stream
Do While objXMLTR.Read
'Output elements and values
'Look at output in browser and compare to menu.xml file to
'see exactly what is being done
If objXMLTR.NodeType = XMLNodeType.Element Then
if bNested = True then
if sCategory <> "" then sCategory = sCategory & " > "
sCategory = sCategory & sLastElement
End if
bNested = True
sLastElement = objXMLTR.Name
Else If objXMLTR.NodeType = XMLNodeType.Text or _
objXMLTR.NodeType = XMLNodeType.CData Then
bNested = False
sCategory = "<P>" & sCategory
sValue = objXMLTR.value
lblXMLFile.Text = lblXMLFile.Text & "<B>" & sCategory & _
"<BR>" & sLastElement & "</B><BR>" & sValue
sLastElement = ""
sCategory = ""
End if
Loop
objXMLTR.close
Catch Ex as Exception
lblXMLFile.Text = "The following error occurred: " & Ex.Message
End Try
End Sub
