I am writing an client application in C# which will be supposed to change ConnectionString settings in a web.config file from another application I wrote. How can I achieve this goal?

I guess there are two major approaches to date representations in XML: <date>1984-10-27</date> and <date> <year>1984</year> <month>10</month> <day>27</day> </date> Personally I would go for the former. It's more compact and at the same time more readable. The split-up of the second form seems overkill to me; e.g. most of the...
Ok so I have the following code. I'm trying to output some xml so that it can be read with jQuery, but for whatever reason, when I try to add an element in the array to a variable, it just turns the variable to 0. I did a print_r() on the array, and it's normal. Code if ($content == "tables") { $result = mysql_query("show tables");...
Why can't I filter results on the attribute value rather than the index? Something like this fails. foreach ($portfolio->clientGroup[$id]->client['name=foo']->src as $src) { echo $src . '<br />'; } But this works. foreach ($portfolio->clientGroup[$id]->client[0]->src as $src) { echo $src . '<br />'; } ...

Isn't that an inconsistent behavior? (PHP 5.2.6) <?php $a = new SimpleXMLElement('<a/>'); $a->addAttribute('b', 'One & Two'); //$a->addChild('c', 'Three & Four'); -- results in "unterminated entity reference" warning! $a->addChild('c', 'Three & Four'); $a->d = 'Five & Six'; print($a->asXML()); Renders: <?xml version="1.0"?> <a...

This is new to me. I have a new boss at work who is insisting that every query we do from now on be a sproc with XML serialized parameters and return types. I've not run any tests yet but this strikes me as overkill and possibly a performance killer in many ways. What is your experience? ...
I want to create an XML string in Flex 3 in a similar way to you might approach it in Java. I only want a small piece of XML in the format <slide thumb="http://www.thumbs.com/thumb.jpg" type="static" blah="bleh" /> The only type of code I can find for doing this seems ridiculous.... private function createXML(): void { var xm:XML = <...

I am struggling with a sensible logic loop for stripping out nodes from an XML file too large to use with XPath supporting .NET classes. I am attempting to replace the single line of code I had (that called SelectNodes with an XPath query string) with code that does the same but uses an XmTextReader. I have to go several levels down as...
