Controlling the order of elements during XML Serialization

(Peter-Paul Koch) On this page I import an XML document and then read out the data and put them in a table on the page. I think importing XML documents will become more and more important in the future. You can manage the XML document as a kind of database, while the HTML document contains all in

(Andrew Mooney) One of the most frequent tasks that web developers receive is that of creating a form to collect user input. One solution is to use an ASP.NET web page to create an XML file that will be used as the basis for a Web form. The three part article, XML Form Generator, will demonstrate ho
