getAttributeNode method

Retrieves an IHTMLDOMAttribute2 interface referenced by the IHTMLDOMAttribute2::name property.

 

Syntax

HRESULT retVal = object.getAttributeNode(bstrname, ppAttribute);

Parameters

Return value

Type: HRESULT

If this method succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns an HRESULT error code.

Standards information

Remarks

Windows Internet Explorer 8 or later. In IE8 Standards mode, IHTMLElement6::getAttributeNode correctly populates the IHTMLDOMAttribute2::value property of the returned attribute object regardless of whether the IHTMLDOMAttribute::specified property is set to VARIANT_TRUE or VARIANT_FALSE. For more information on IE8 mode, see Defining Document Compatibility.

Internet Explorer 8 or later. In IE8 mode, the IHTMLDOMAttribute2::value property is correctly reported as a canonical attribute name. For example, <input type="text" readonly> and <input type="text" readonly="readonly"> would both set the input text field to read-only. In IE8 mode, the value is evaluated as a canonical value, "readonly". In IE7 and earlier modes, it is evaluated as a Boolean value, VARIANT_TRUE.

IHTMLElement6::getAttributeNode was introduced in Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.

Examples

The following example uses IHTMLElement6::getAttributeNode to create an attribute object and populate its value property, which is then passed by reference to an output variable for assignment to the contents of a div element. Note how the call to IHTMLElement6::setAttribute changes the IHTMLLinkElement4::href value for the content attribute but not for the DOM attribute.
