createCDATASection

Syntax:: document.createCDATASection(data)
data: The string data that will be assigned as the value of the new CDATASection object.

This method creates a CDATASection object whose value is the data supplied as the argument.

Creating an instance of this object does not automatically include it in the XML Document tree, and so its parentNode property is set to null.

Examples

Code:

Set objXMLDoc = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")


 objXMLDoc.async = False


 objXMLDoc.load("quotations.xml")



 Dim root, objNewCDATA, currNode


 Set root = objXMLDoc.documentElement


 Set objNewCDATA = objXMLDoc.createCDATASection("Copyright Notice")


 root.appendChild(objNewCDATA)



 Set currNode = root.lastChild


 document.write(currNode.nodeType)


 document.write("<br>" &  currNode.nodeName)


 document.write("<br>"  & currNode.nodeValue)

Output:

4

#cdata-section

Copyright Notice

Explanation:

This example creates a CDATASection consisting of a copyright notice, and appends it to the children of the document's root element. It then displays the new node's type, name and value. The value '4' returned for the node's type indicates that it is a CDATASection object (see the list of node types).
