Returns the node type in string form.

Script Syntax

strValue = oXMLDOMNode.nodeTypeString;

Example

The following script example creates an IXMLDOMNode object and displays its node type in string form, in this case, "element".

var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.3.0");
var currNode;
xmlDoc.async = false;
xmlDoc.load("books.xml");
if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode != 0) {
   var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;
   WScript.Echo("You have error " + myErr.reason);
} else {
   currNode = xmlDoc.documentElement.childNodes.item(0);
   WScript.Echo(currNode.nodeTypeString);
}

Visual Basic Syntax

strValue = oXMLDOMNode.nodeTypeString

C/C++ Syntax

HRESULT get_nodeTypeString(  
    BSTR *nodeType);

Parameters

nodeType[out, retval]
String version of the node type.

C/C++ Return Values

S_OK
