Microsoft DOM Objects Reference

parsed

Is a member of:

DOMDocument XMLDOMNode XMLDOMAttribute XMLDOMCDATASection XMLDOMComment XMLDOMDocumentFragment XMLDOMDocumentType XMLDOMElement XMLDOMEntity XMLDOMEntityReference XMLDOMNotation XMLDOMProcessingInstruction XMLDOMText XTLRuntime

Syntax

blnParsed = objDOMDocument.parsed

Remark

This property returns True/False, regarding whether the document is parsed, after it is loaded (i.e., indicates whether it is a well-formed document). It will only parse a document if you have set the resolveExternals property of DOMDocument to True. (See the resolveExternals property for more details.)

Example

The following example is the same as found in the length property example, except we use this property to check whether the XML file is parsed.

Dim objDOMDocument As DOMDocument

Dim objNode As IXMLDOMNode

Set objDOMDocument = New DOMDocument

objDOMDocument.async = False

objDOMDocument.Load "http://localhost/xmlcode/people2.dtd"

If objDOMDocument.parsed = True Then

'run rest of code here

End If
