Guest johnmce Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Having problems with xml. I am a newbie. I have worked my way through the tutorials and have tried the example at the following address. http://www.w3schools.com/dom/tryit.asp?fil...om_getattributeIt works in the tryit editor but not in internet explorer or firefox. I have saved this file as note.html and the other file as note.xml When I run the html it is blank. Any suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boen_robot Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 I don't get it... it works in the tryit editor but...when you save the code on the left as note.html: <html><head><script type="text/javascript">var xmlDocfunction loadXML(){//Code for IEif (window.ActiveXObject) { xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM"); xmlDoc.async=false; xmlDoc.load("note.xml"); getmessage() }//Code for Mozillaelse if (document.implementation && document.implementation.createDocument) { xmlDoc=document.implementation.createDocument("","",null); xmlDoc.load("note.xml"); xmlDoc.onload=getmessage }else { alert('Your browser cannot handle this script'); }}function getmessage(){var x=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("note")document.write(x.item(0).getAttribute("time"))}</script></head><body onload="loadXML()"></body></html> And have this XML file in the same folder: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?><!-- Edited with XML Spy v2006 (http://www.altova.com) --><note time="12:03:46"> <to>Tove</to> <from>Jani</from> <heading>Reminder</heading> <body>Don't forget me this weekend!</body></note> It should work .
