this code is asp.net

This NG is only for classical ASP.

The @Language="VBScript" declaration is a server-side declaration that
defines the default script engine.

You can remove it if you know that your default script engine is VBScript
(ASP).

You need to View Source to see the actual error message.

My mistake. I didn't realize you were dealing with a file. I thought you
were doing a response.write using contenttype = text/xml.

What happens if you just remove the <%Language... tag?

Actuall, just move this tag to the top of the page, BEFORE the xml tags
begin.

You might check the versions of MSXML between the server that works and the
one that doesn't.

thankseveryone for trying to help but am still struggling with this one:(:(
The page is an asp page that displays a dynamic list. It is xhtml compliant and was made in dreamweaver mx.
I have pasted the full page below, basically it collects 2 sets of data from a sql server using stored procs on the sql server. These pages work
fine locally and I have just uploaded to another host and again they worked
fine, the only difference I can find betweeen the hosts that work and the
one that doesn't is that the one that is not working does not have the .net
framework installed, but as this is an asp page I am confused as to why that
would effect the page and give an xml error!!!!
