How to access xml attributes?

xml newbie needs help

[TravelSite]

I'm trying to add xml content to my site, using asp and "Microsoft.XMLDOM". So far I can display xml data by using lines such as:

Response.Write xmlObj.getElementsByTagName("AnItem").item((counter)).text

This allows me to access the elements I need from xml docs such as:

<AnObject>
<AnItem id="1245">Item Details go here</AnItem>
</AnObject>

The question is how do I access the attribute tags (e.g. the "id" part of the above example)?

...just found a solution

set temp=xmlObj.getElementsByTagName("Details").item((counter))
AttID=temp.Attributes.getNamedItem("id").Text
response.write AttID

Something like

.item((counter)).attributes.getNamedItem("id").text?

That'll teach me to refresh before posting .....

Hey irnbru,

Thanks anyway. I spent several hours trying to figure it out before posting...only to find a solution a few minutes later (typical).
