Convert XML page into Internal Table

[former_member221770]

Hi,

I'm not sure if this post belongs here or not, but here goes.

I have a requirement to read in data from a xml page and save the contents into a ABAP internal table.

At the moment, I have extracted the contents of the XML page into a string using the IF_HTTP_CLIENT->RESPONSE->GET_CDATA method.

Now I underatand that SAP has XSLT documents that can be used to transform XML documents into ABAP Data Structures.

Can someone explain to me how this works? I have looked in SAP Help about the XSLT Editor, but it still looks like double dutch to me (no offence to the dutch people out there!).

Thanks,

Pat.

Hi Patrick,

I would search the ABAP Development forum with words like: xml, transform, internal tables,...

When using xml AND transform I found the following post:

It contains some code which might be useful for you.

You can use either XSLT programming or Simple Transformation to do that job. check out the following weblogs.
