Hi,

Is it possible to populate HTML from XML and then keep user changes and then extract the XML with the changed data?

I want to......
Download data from an iSeries to a Tablet PC, allow users to maintain the data on the tablet PC. (Standalone). Then upload the data back to the iSeries.

The download and upload is easy as is the XML. It seems that keeping updates from HTML is not.

Any ideas?

OK, I have found what was suppossed to be the solution.
I created an ASP file to create xml from the html data. This would be neat except it does not create the xml.
I got the code examples from w3schools.com.

I believe the code is correct and so is the HTML.
Is there a system setting to allow use of asp files?

I don't get any error messages or any blue screens just a blank web page with the asp code behind it.

OK, I have found the answer to that problem.
The problem now is to use ASP to create meaningful xml from
html when there is a table on the form.
I have posted a thread in the ASP section for this as well.
