Overview
The XMLNode class represents the fundamental building block
of XML documents. It is an implementation of the tree model established by the
W3C Document Object Model. XMLNode supplies a series of derived classes,
including the XMLDocument class.
Example (VB.NET): How
to display properties of child XMLNodes within an XML document.
Here we use the XMLNodeList to represent the
parentElement1's collection of child nodes. The XMLNode variable is assigned
the root element value, from where we begin the For Each loop.
Dim objDocument As New System.Xml.XmlDocument
Dim objXmlNode As System.Xml.XmlNode
Dim objXmlNodeList As System.Xml.XmlNodeList
Dim strValues As String
objDocument.LoadXml("<parentElement1><childElement1>Test
Value 1</childElement1><childElement2>Test Value
2</childElement2><childElement3>Test Value
3</childElement3><childElement4>Test Value
4</childElement4></parentElement1>")
Example (VB.NET): How
to append an XMLNode to an existing XML document.
In this example we
create two XMLNode objects. The first represents the root element of the XML
document we've loaded into memory. The second is assigned an empty element that
is appended as the last child of the document.
Dim objDocument As New System.Xml.XmlDocument
Dim objXmlNode As System.Xml.XmlNode
Dim objXmlNodeNew As System.Xml.XmlNode
objDocument.LoadXml("<parentElement1><childElement1>Test
Value 1</childElement1><childElement2>Test Value
2</childElement2><childElement3>Test Value
3</childElement3><childElement4>Test Value
4</childElement4></parentElement1>")
