how can I query (or search) an xml file for the text or values of specified elements? I need it to return the location of the element where the text appeared.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hm. What platforms are you writing for? I suspect this will be easier in Gecko-based browsers like Netscape 6+ & Mozilla than in IE.

I want it to work with Netscape and Internet Explorer...

I was reading and can I maybe use XQL or something with the XMLDOM? Any websites that give examples or info would be helpful.

Are you trying to query the file through an Application or through a client-side HTML document ( or the like )?

in an ASP file, the query would run on the server-side.

Ohhhh, server-side.... wrong forum. :)

That's what they have moderators for. Moving to ASP forum.
