I would like to thank everyone for your answers, but I'm not seeing the light yet!
When I access the url via the Firefox browser and look into the source code, I also get:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <string xmlns="http................"><DataSet> ~ <Order> ~ <Customer>439</Customer> ~ </Order> </DataSet></string>
should I take the contents of the string tag that is text and replace all '<' with '<' and '>' with '>' and then read it with xml.minidom? how to do it?
or should I use another parser that accomplishes the task with no need to replace the escaped characters? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org
