item Method (IXMLDOMNamedNodeMap)

[Script]

Script Syntax

var objXMLDOMNode = oXMLDOMNamedNodeMap.item(index);

Parameters

index

A long integer. An index of the item within the collection. The first item is zero.

Return Value

An object. Returns IXMLDOMNode. Returns Null if the index is out of range.

Example

The following script example creates an IXMLDOMNamedNodeMap object to retrieve the attributes for an element node selected using the SelectSingleNode method. It then iterates through the attributes, before displaying the name and value of each attribute in the collection.

var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.5.0");
var oNamedNodeMap, nodeBook, str;
var str = "";
xmlDoc.async = false;
xmlDoc.load("books.xml");
if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode <> 0) {
   var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;
   alert("You have error " + myErr.reason);
} else {
   xmlDoc.setProperty("SelectionLanguage", "XPath");
   nodeBook = xmlDoc.selectSingleNode("//book");
   oNamedNodeMap = nodeBook.attributes;
   for (var i=0; i<oNamedNodeMap.length; i++) {
      str += "Attr" + i + " name: " + 
         oNamedNodeMap.item(i).name + "\n" +
         "Attr" + i + " value: " + 
         oNamedNodeMap.item(i).text + "\n";
   }
   alert(str);
}

[Visual Basic]

Visual Basic Syntax

Set objXMLDOMNode = oXMLDOMNamedNodeMap.item(index)

Parameters

index

A long integer. Index of the item within the collection. The first item is zero.

Return Value

An object. Returns IXMLDOMNode. Returns Null if the index is out of range.

Example

The following Microsoft® Visual Basic® example creates an IXMLDOMNamedNodeMap object to retrieve the attributes for an element node selected using the SelectSingleNode method. It then iterates through the attributes, before displaying the name and value of each attribute in the collection.

Dim xmlDoc As New MSXML2.DOMDocument50
Dim oNamedNodeMap As IXMLDOMNamedNodeMap
Dim nodeBook As IXMLDOMElement
Dim str As String
str = ""
xmlDoc.async = False
xmlDoc.Load "books.xml"
If (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode <> 0) Then
   Dim myErr
   Set myErr = xmlDoc.parseError
   MsgBox("You have error " & myErr.reason)
Else
   Set nodeBook = xmlDoc.selectSingleNode("//book")
   Set oNamedNodeMap = nodeBook.Attributes
   For i = 0 To (oNamedNodeMap.length - 1)
      str = str & _
         "Attr" & CStr(i) & " name: " & _
         oNamedNodeMap.Item(i).nodeName & vbCrLf & _
         "Attr" & CStr(i) & " value: " & _
         oNamedNodeMap.Item(i).nodeValue & vbCrLf
   Next
   MsgBox str
End If
