given this xml

<provincias>
  <provincia id="2" inmuebles="4" nombre="Albacete">
    <localidad id="54" nombre="ALBACETE" inmuebles="1">
      <inmuebles>

          <foto>
            url/docweb/promocion/225/00052458.JPG

          <bloque/>
          <portal/>
          <escalera/>
          <planta>5º</planta>
          <puerta>A</puerta>
          <codigopostal>02005</codigopostal>
          <superficie>97</superficie>
          <superficieutil>86</superficieutil>
          <habitaciones>4</habitaciones>
          <aseos>2</aseos>
          <geolocalizacion>38.999526,-1.861082</geolocalizacion>
          <imagen src="url.../docweb/promocion/225/00052458.JPG"/>
        </inmueble>
      </inmuebles>
    </localidad>
  </provincia>
</provincias>

How can I access the tag "nombre" attribute? I've tried the following with no success:

set XmlDoc = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
XmlDoc.async = false    
set provincias = XmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("provincia")

For Each provincia in provincias
  d1_provincia_nombre = provincia.getAttribute("nombre").value

But i keep getting : a Required object : '[string: "Albacete"]' error.

Alrite after trying some other stuff the problem was changing the line to this : d1_provincia_nombre = provincia.GetAttribute("nombre") — MikaelMadrid

I think your problem is you're specifying .value on your getAttribute when the XML DOM doesn't support it.

Try this;

'Specifying .value will give an undefined or object required error
d1_provincia_nombre = provincia.getAttribute("nombre")

See - Using Classic ASP to get value of a node attribute for more information on traversing the xml DOM in asp-classic.
