Hi the changes that i am making using dom (see function modify) take place only in memory untill the next reload ..but not in my xml file
I am doing this for a customer and i am unable to install a
server side language to do a submit , how can i save the contents of
xmldoc directly to a file locally ?? I was thnking of active x , but can someone someone post some code? is that the best solution?
Contents of xml file :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Global_Emergency activated="off">
<VDN id="000" Country="GR" ServiceName="CA">
<Training_Emergency>off</Training_Emergency>
