XMLObject :: Website

Welcome XML coders!

This site is dedicated to an ASP project I was working on back in 2001—2005, called XMLObject. It's an ASP (JScript) Object Wrapper for a number of actions, necessary when working with XML and XSLT in an ASP environment.

I am still implementing new features whenever I get the time/urge, so if you think I'm leaving some cool feature out in the cold, please send a message, and I'll consider implementing it.

NOTE: I am no longer maintaining or developing the project—it’s only here for reference.

March 2002, Chriztian Steinmeier.

History

@19-10-2002 00:45 (v2.8.5): Separate caching of XML or XSL using bitflags. Bugfix when loading via HTTP and using caching. New optional argument for .appendToRoot(). New property .useXPath.

@25-08-2002 23:36 (v2.8.4): Added support for ServerXMLHTTP when loading XML from URLs.

@30-04-2002 01:23 (v2.8.3): Added a new constant: XMLOBJ_DEFAULT_VERSION and a new method: .appendToNode().

@22-03-2002 00:21 (v2.8.2): Bugfix: Using .setVersion() worked, but would throw an error anyway. Additionally, version 4 PROGIDs were supported, but the "4.0" registered as "Not supported"...

@23-02-2002 02:25 (v2.8.1): Bugfix: Using .replaceNode() in conjunction with the caching mechanisms threw an error about mixed threading models.

@14-01-2002 00:20 (v2.8): Fixed some bugs with Version-Dependent ProgIDs, and loading via URLs. Added support for the MSXML4 Parser. Added the constants to the Reference section.

@22-11-2001 01:31 (v2.7): New function: quickTransformXML, and a new constant: XMLOBJ_NO_ERRORS was added to the interface.

@01-11-2001 00:12 (v2.6): Implemented .getNodeText().

@31-10-2001 20:35 (v2.6): Fixed a bug with parameters that wasn't specified in the QueryString being transferred to the stylesheet as "undefined". Now only specified parameters are transferred, which allows for default values in the stylesheet.

@23-10-2001 22:38 (v2.5): Implemented .removeNode() method.

@23-10-2001 01:42 (v2.5): Uploaded the website.

@18-10-2001 22:01 (v2.5): Implemented .saveXML(), .replaceNode() and .appendToRoot() methods. Removed interface description from xmlobject.asp.

@02-10-2001 21:24 (v2.2): Implemented property .validateOnParse

@26-09-2001 22:16 (v2.1): Refined handling of cached documents - if another page uses the same file, and sets the XMLOBJ_USE_XSLTEMPLATE flag, the XMLObject will look for a cached version before trying to load a fresh document.

@21-09-2001 00:26 (v2.0): Reworked logic for the 3rd parameter of constructor to use bitflags. Enables use of XSLTemplate together with XMLOBJ_NO_TRANSFORM.

@18-09-2001 00:19 (v2.0): Implemented .validate() method.

@16-09-2001 00:25 (v2.0): Implemented access to .addParameter() and .addObject() in the XSLProcessor.

@15-09-2001 02:21 (v2.0): Succeeded in implementing the XSLTemplate object INCLUDING parameters from QueryString being transferred to the XSLProcessor!!!

@14-09-2001 02:29 (v1.1): Pieced the documentation together, which contains XML and XSLT - and they are using this object for showing...

@13-09-2001 20:14 (v1.0): Moved interface functions inside constructor for better encapsulation.

@30-08-2001 22:45 (v1.0): Fixed the seemingly incredibly buggy .xml + .xsl properties, as they hadn't really been implemented -:)

@29-08-2001 01:04 (v0.1): Implemented the loading methods .loadXMLdoc() + .loadXSLdoc()

@28-08-2001 00:05 (v0.1): First successful tests. Lots of minor bugtracking & -fixing.

@26-08-2001 20:44 (v0.1): Project started. Interface layout. Coding.
