Get XML node attribute?

Hi,

I'm pretty new to XML, but I've been working mostly successfully with an
RSS-parsing bit of ASP code to display the contents of an XML on a web
page.

What I can't seem to find, even though it seems like it should be pretty
elementary, is how, instead of displaying the node text, you can display
the value of a node attribute.

I tried to replace child.text with child.attributename but I get an
error:

Object doesn't support this property or method: 'attributename'

I'm sure this is some simple syntax, but I haven't found it yet.

Any help?

Thanks.

Thanks. Figured it was something easy like that.

I even Googled: asp XMLHTTP get node attribute
but came up with nothing.
