Code:
XML:
<staff>
<employee
ssn="123456"
pay="3">
<name>John Sullivan</name>
<position>senior executive</position>
</employee>
<employee>
<name>Mary Lopez</name>
<position>personal assistant</position>
</employee>
</staff>
VBScript:
Set objXMLDoc = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
objXMLDoc.async = False
objXMLDoc.load("staff.xml")
Set ParseErr = objXMLDoc.parseError
If ParseErr.errorCode <> 0 Then
alert("Error Line: " & ParseErr.line)
End IfOutput:
Error Line: 9Explanation:
In the following example the file 'staff.xml' is loaded which includes an error: the second employee element does not include an 'ssn' attribute which is required by the DTD. If a parse error occurs, as it does in this case, an alert displays the number of the line where it occurs.
