Help please with xml webservice

Hi

Can any one tell me why the follow does not work for me, i cant see what is wrong with it

I have a web service that out put the following xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <ArrayOfContact xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://tempuri.org/">
- <contact>
<ID>1</ID>
<FirstName>bob</FirstName>
<LastName>brown</LastName>
</contact>
- <contact>
<ID>2</ID>
<FirstName>jack</FirstName>
<LastName>doe</LastName>
</contact>
</ArrayOfContact>


then i have the following Javascript

var data = new Active.XML.Table;
data.setURL("http://localhost/MyWebService/Service1.asmx/GetContact");
//data.setParameter("", ""); no params needed
data.setNamespace("xi", "http://tempuri.org/");
data.setColumns(["xi:FirstName"]);
data.request();

var obj = new Active.Controls.Grid;

obj.setDataModel(data);
obj.setColumnProperty("texts", ["FirstName"]);
document.write(obj);


Why does this not work??

Is there any one oyt there that can see what might have done wrong?? i am lost

I cannot see whats wrong - everything seems ok :-(

I'm not a pro, but this is what I do with mine..

var data = new Active.XML.Table;
data.setURL("http://localhost/MyWebService/Service1.asmx/GetContact");
//data.setParameter("", ""); no params needed
data.setNamespace("xi", "http://tempuri.org/");
data.setColumns(["xi:FirstName"]);
data.request();

TO....

var data = new Active.XML.Table;
data.setURL("http://******/Get_Quotes.xml?mandID=ON");
table.setRows("//root/*");
data.setColumns(["FirstName", "LastName"]);
data.request();

And change your template that calls for the SQL data to something like...

<root xmlns:sql="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-sql">
    <sql:header>
        <sql:param name="mangID"></sql:param>
    </sql:header>
    <sql:query>
         exec dbo.Get_Quotes @mangID
    </sql:query>
</root>

It just looks like Active W cannot find your data in your xml table, so it has to do with your 'setRows'
