    I am not very familar with ASP so I need help.

    I want to be a display data from a remote XML file or RSS feed.

    here are the urls of the data:
    XML:http://newweb.erh.noaa.gov/ahps2/xml/harp1_hgirg.xml
    RSS:http://www.weather.gov/ahps/rss/gauge.php?wfo=ctp&lid=harp1

    I only want the most recent data from the file for the <observed.datum>

    For instance I want to be able to disply on my webpage(s) everytime that the page is loaded or rereshed the following:

    <datum>
    <valid timezone="UTC">2007-12-07T15:00:00-00:00</valid>
    <primary name="Stage" units="ft">4.99</primary>
    <secondary name="Flow" units="kcfs">34.8</secondary>
    <pedts>HGIRG</pedts>
    </datum>


    Of course not in that format...
    I need Time of observation, stage number, and flow number.


    Thanks for your assistance.

    Are you using asp, or asp.net? It's actually a pretty big difference...

    Your best bet is to use the XML DOM, which is going to be either MSXML or XmlDocument, depending on which framework you're using.

    I think it is ASP and NOT ASP.net

    I do not have access to the server now but with a few scripts I have found I think I was able to get some of the data with XmlDocument in the code.



    If this is too complicated to answer on the forum then point me to a developer so I can see how much it would cost to create this
