Variable in XML string - 2/1/2008 9:16:01
Can I put a variable in an XML string? Like:
dim mydate
mydate = date()
strXML = "<graph caption='AMC Performance' subcaption='Bookings'
I want to add mydate after Booking
Thanks
Chad

Not quite sure what you mean.
XML will not parse a VBScript / ASP variable. XML by it's nature is not a scripting language but a structured text document.
Are you trying to add variable data on-the-fly?

RE: Variable in XML string - 2/1/2008 9:48:40
quote:
strXML = "<graph caption='AMC Performance' subcaption='Bookings'
Is this what you're trying to do?
strXML = "<graph caption='AMC Performance' subcaption='Bookings' " & myDate & ".....
Something like that? If this code is on an ASP page, it should add the date to that string.

Oh, I think I get it; you want to add the date to the caption right? Not as an element?
strXML = "<graph caption='AMC Performance' subcaption='Bookings " & myDate & "' .....
See where I put the apostrophe? I had that before the date on my example but the text needs to be completely inside the apostrophes. That make sense?
