XML request from a desktop app - Delphi
#144

Hi All

Hope someone can help me.

Using Delphi in Borland Developer 2006.

I want to issue an XML request from a desktop application to an
existing XML server situated on our WAN.
I have 2 strings (1 to retrieve a XML file and the other to retrieve
an accompanying Image)

http://xxxx.xxxx.com/item/xml_summary.php?IITEM=AJOH90010370'
http://xxxx.xxxx.com//item/pict/draw_item.php?IITEM=GBRA90010096'

This process using these strings already exists on a web page but will
only retrieve data for 1 item at a time as requested.

Due to problems with network connectivity (I can't do anything about
this) I need to create a backup automated process that retrieves data
related to a number of items and have been asked to create a desktop
app using Delphi that will run through a database of items and issue 2
XML requests for each item to retrieve and store data locally

Has anyone any advice on how this might be accomplished

Any assistance offered will be most gratefully received

Thanks in advance

Iain
