Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Calls MoveToContent and tests if the current content node is a start tag or empty element tag and if the LocalName and NamespaceURI properties of the element found match the given strings.

Namespace:  System.Xml
Assembly:  System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Overridable Function IsStartElement ( _
    localname As String, _
    ns As String _
) As Boolean

public virtual bool IsStartElement(
    string localname,
    string ns
)

Parameters

  • localname
    Type: System.String
    The string to match against the LocalName property of the element found.
  • ns
    Type: System.String
    The string to match against the NamespaceURI property of the element found.

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if the resulting node is an element. false if a node type other than XmlNodeType.Element was found or if the LocalName and NamespaceURI properties of the element do not match the specified strings.

Exceptions

Incorrect XML is encountered in the input stream.

Remarks

This method skips white space, comments, and processing instructions until the reader is positioned on a content node. The method then tests if the current node is an element.
