[zhixiong]

Pls look at the link below so as to understand my problem.....the page is very short so pls have a look at it.

For the above link, the datas are being saved to xml using 'processForm.asp', if i cant use 'ASP' and my only choices are 'JSP' or 'Java' , 'XSL' to display. Can it be done???

Any websites that have similar examples or links will be greatly thankful.....

You can do the exact same job with Javascript, as long as you make use of xmldom again....

Here is a snippet that can probably pinpoint the similarity of the two approaches. Hope that it helps:

var xmlDOM = new ActiveXObject("msxml.DOMDocument");

// Load XML data from a URL into the XML DOM (Document
// Object Model).
xmlDOM.async = false;
xmlDOM.load("some URL that returns an XML stream");

// Iterate over the XML DOM tree to get the list of items,
// loading them into an HTML SELECT control via DHTML.
document.all.selItems.length = 0;
var xmlNodes = xmlDOM.childNodes[1].childNodes;
for (var xmlNode = xmlNodes.nextNode();
xmlNode;
xmlNode = xmlNodes.nextNode())
{
var optNew = document.createElement("OPTION");
optNew.text = xmlNode.childNodes[0].text;
optNew.value = optNew.text;
document.all.selItems.options.add(optNew);
}
