Methods
Parameters
name – The name of an attribute to retrieve.
Return Value
Object – Returns the XMLDOMAttribute with the supplied name, or null if the
named attribute cannot be found on this element.
Example
var doc = new XML.DOMDocument;
doc.load("sample.xml");
var root = doc.documentElement;
var node = root.childNodes.item(1).childNodes.item(9);
println(node.getAttributeNode("permanent").name);
Output
permanent
getElementsByTagName
Returns a XMLDOMNodeList of all descendant elements with a given tag name, in
the order in which they would be encountered in a preorder traversal of the
XMLDOMElement tree.
Syntax
var obj XMLDOMNodeList = oXMLDOMElement.getElementsByTagName
(name)
Parameters
name – The name of the tag to match on. The special value “*” matches all tags.
Return Value
Object – The XMLDOMNodeList object containing all elements that matched the
supplied name.
Note that the XMLDOMNodeList object is returned even if there are no matches. In
such a case, the length of the list is set to zero. The XMLDOMNodeList object is
live and immediately reflects changes to the nodes that appear in the list.
Example
var doc = new XML.DOMDocument;
doc.load("sample.xml");
var root = doc.documentElement;
var list = root.getElementsByTagName("GPA");
println(list.length);
Output
