Re: How to parse xml file from localfile with out using http

If it's in your source directory (and I'd recommend creating a separate directory for your XML file(s)), you have to read it into a string variable. Something like this:

xml = ReadAsciiFile("pkg:/source/myxml.xml")
xmlel = CreateObject("roXmlElement")
xmlel.Parse(xml)

Hope this helps!
