Forms submittal to create XML file

I am working with Frontpage 2000 and wondering if the form processor will
give me a method of saving as an XML file. Does not seem to be
straighforward, even though I can imagine using the custom ASP script option
as a way to 'handle' the form and parse it into the XML I need.

I'd be happy to post more details here if I'm not clear what I'm trying to do.

Yes, it could be done using ASP. Create the XML as a string, and write it to
a file using the Scripting.FileSystemObject object. It would require that
the IUSER_<machine name> account have "write" file permission for the folder
containing the file.

Not possible with the FP Form Handler.
