How to conume xml sent over http post

How do I consume xml and send back an xml response not using SOAP in
an asp.net aspx page using vb.net?

re: How to conume xml sent over http post

One way of achieving this is by using XMLHTTP on the
client to POST XML-data to server.

Then make a custom parser in the ASP.NET to read the XML
from POST-data on the Request object.

When you shall make response back to client, you put your
XML-data in the Response.Write method.

XMLHTTP will the receive the response on the client as
pure XML.

We have successfully used this method in VB6/ASP and
in .NET in order to quickly make simple websites. You
don't always have to use the whole WebForm framework :D

re: How to conume xml sent over http post

I was thinking about using the following in the pageload

dim doc as System.Xml.XmlDocument = new XmlDocument()
doc.Load(Request.InputStream)

Once I consume the xml I want to send xml back using http post.

thanks for the help

the following works:

Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'Put user code to initialize the page here
Try
Dim doc As System.Xml.XmlDocument = New XmlDocument()

doc.Load(Request.InputStream)

Dim singlenode As XmlNode =
doc.SelectSingleNode("nodename1")
Dim strnodevalue As String = singlenode.InnerText

Dim nodeatt As XmlAttribute =
singlenode.Attributes("attribute1")
Dim attributevalue As String = nodeatt.InnerXml

'do something

Dim doc2 As XmlDocument = New XmlDocument()
doc2.Load(Server.MapPath("test.xml"))




doc2.Save(Response.OutputStream)



End Sub
