Getting XML From a Database

[ben2ong2]

XML can be generated from a database without any installed XML software.
To generate an XML database response from the server, simply write the following code and save it as an ASP file on the web server:
<%response.ContentType = "text/xml"set conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") conn.provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;"conn.open server.mappath("/db/database.mdb")sql="select fname,lname from tblGuestBook"set rs=Conn.Execute(sql)rs.MoveFirst()response.write("<?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1'?>")response.write("<guestbook>")while (not rs.EOF)  response.write("<guest>")  response.write("<fname>" & rs("fname") & "</fname>")  response.write("<lname>" & rs("lname") & "</lname>")  response.write("</guest>")  rs.MoveNext()wendrs.close()conn.close()response.write("</guestbook>")%>
