It's not xml, it's just HTML.  Don't worry about the fact that the file 
extension is .asp; the file is simply HTML and could have any number of 
extensions (.html, .htm, .pl, .php) depending on how it was produced.

This is from a daily generated quote from another private website and I
want to create a floating window on the computer that displays their
quotes in it and maybe clean it up a bit and make it look nice. If I am
successful I will be donating it to them for their own
distribution/downloading. Any help is really appreciated. Thanks.
Use offset() to find the beginning and end of the quote, and then munge 
the quote to format it as you like.

Hi Thomas,

What you posted below is just plain old HTML which has been generated from
an ASP script on a Microsoft IIS server.



just like in Rev:

--This is a Rev comment

the .asp at the end of the URL tells the server what type of file the URL
is. In the case of .asp, the server runs the .asp code in the designated
URL. IOW, if the URL is:

http://www.test.com/fred.asp

then the server would execute the file named: "fred.asp"
Inside of fred.asp you might find some HTML and some scripts to do different
things. The server runs fred.asp and it generates HTML which is what is
displayed in your browser. You never get to see what the script was that
generated the HTML.

For a very basic intro to ASP check out:

use  to insert a line-break into HTML

It's just regualar HTML by the time you see it.

the asp file gets processed on the server and sent to you as plain html 
(same as php and cfm)


> think the  is a tag but am not sure if it is xml or

simple little comment tags.. nothing more, nothing less



> need to know how best to handle this and what file type the .asp is

check out microsoft's website.. they've basically have it as asp.net now
asp stands for "active server pages" and usually contains vbscript code 
that gets processed on the server and set to the client as plain html..


if you plan on fixing the formatting of the site, it'd be easiest to 
change the asp files..

I need a little help on ASP files

Below I pasted a piece of a .asp file off the web. I don't know but I 
think the  is a tag but am not sure if it is xml or 
what.
What I want to do is capture just that part and add some code to it to 
better format the page. right now the  run 
together and I want to separate them. Right now they display but not 
very nice. There are no graphics and the page is generated daily. I 
need to know how best to handle this and what file type the .asp is

So, if they are xml then can I use rev to parse the info
If not then is my best bet to just search/offset the info and write my 
own html for use in rev???

This is from a daily generated quote from another private website and I 
want to create a floating window on the computer that displays their
