May be the wrong group but someone should be able to advise. I have the following to display the correct menu in a separate frame: <% Response.Write "<Menu_id>http://www.restaurantplanet.com/ test_930.asp?menu=" & Recordset1("Menu_id") & "</Menu_id>" %> This works fine, but I want to add Location_id to the string. I've been unable to get this to work...either I get the data at the root level is invalid or I can't get the correct layout in the url and that wouldn't help either. Thanks for the advice. Sean

I have tried your suggestion, but still get the invalid xml message. The additional informaiton would be Location_id= and Recordset1("Location_id") I've just tried various methods including your advice and can't get this thing working. Thanks!
