Microsoft.XMLHTTP vs Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP.4.0 ?

[Arnaud]

Hi,

I'm trying to translate an asp application, i have some difficulties with a
particular line :
---
Set myxml = Server.CreateOb ject("Msxml2.Se rverXMLHTTP.4.0 ")
---

Classical ajax exemples rather use :
[...]
req = new ActiveXObject(" Microsoft.XMLHT TP");

.... But i'm not sure the ActiveXObject is identical to the original :
Set myxml = Server.CreateOb ject("Msxml2.Se rverXMLHTTP.4.0 ")

I'm not an asp expert, can you give me some tips on that question ?

Thanks,
Arnaud

What exactly are you trying to do, translate a VBScript ASP sample to a
JScript ASP sample? Then use
var myxml = Server.CreateOb ject("Msxml2.Se rverXMLHTTP.4.0 ");
That will use the server version of the XMLHTTP object of MSXML 4 which
means MSXML 4 needs to be installed on the server where you want to run
the JScript ASP page.

Hi,
Actually I'm trying to translate it into php so i won't have any msxml4
installed on the server.
That's why I tried the ajax/client approach : to avoid dealing with a server
object.
Have I a chance to see it works one day ? :)

I am not sure I really understand why you are asking in a JavaScript
group if you want to convert server side VBScript/ASP to PHP but as for
those objects, they have many common properties and methods but there
are some differences. Documentation is here:
<http://msdn.microsoft. com/library/default.asp?url =/library/en-us/xmlsdk/html/7924f6be-c035-411f-acd2-79de7a711b38.as p>
<http://msdn.microsoft. com/library/default.asp?url =/library/en-us/xmlsdk/html/1aac5bb8-3647-44cf-a1ce-c220ba464509.as p>
So ServerXMLHTTP has methods like setTimeouts, waitForResponse that the
XMLHTTP does not have.

Because I have tried some ajax code too, so I said myself perhaps someone
would know the solution.

Thanks, I'm going to study your links, I've tried the msdn documentation on
some asp keywords but it's not so easy to read where you're not used to ms
world.
