I have an .aspx page that is successfully (I use Visual Web Developer
2008) reading an XML file and displaying the records on a datagrid
using:
<script runat="server">
Private Function MakeDataView() as DataView
Dim myDataSet As New DataSet()
myDataSet.ReadXml(Server.MapPath("history.xml"))
Dim view As DataView = New DataView(myDataSet.Tables(0))
view.AllowDelete = False
view.AllowEdit = False
view.AllowNew = False
Return view
End Function
Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
Dim view as DataView = MakeDataView()
dgHistory.DataSource = view
dgHistory.AllowSorting = True
dgHistory.DataBind()
Label1.Text = DateAndTime.Now.ToLongTimeString
End Sub
</script>
Can anyone give me some clues as to how to code another .aspx page to
query the XML using XPathNavigator (or something else) tools to find a
specific node
based on an ID number? The goal is to have the user be able to click
on an edit button and it will launch an edit page passing that record
to the edit page.
I really need a separate edit page because the number of fields is
over 50 and the datagrid in the base form only displays about 4
fields.
