XML HTTP

  • Article

The XML HTTP feature makes it possible to exchange Extensible Markup Language (XML) data directly over the Internet, using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). Using the XML HTTP feature, you can create applications that can transfer data over the Web. This feature implements the XMLHTTP object.

Using the XMLHTTP object you can access data from a Web server, parse the data using the XML Document Object Model (DOM), and post XML data through a typical firewall directly to an HTTP server.

The XML HTTP feature requires the XML Core Services and DOM, URL Moniker, and Windows Internet Services features. For more information about XML HTTP, see the World Wide Web Consortium Web site.
