SELECTEDNODEINDEX Attribute | selectedNodeIndex Property

  • Article

Sets or retrieves the index of the selected TreeNode.

Syntax

HTML <namespace:TREEVIEW SELECTEDNODEINDEX = sSelectedNodeIndex... >
Scripting TREEVIEW.selectedNodeIndex [ = sSelectedNodeIndex ]

Possible Values

namespace Prefix that associates a custom tag with an XML namespace. This prefix is set using the XMLNS attribute of the html tag.
sSelectedNodeIndex String that specifies or receives the index of the selected node.
0
Default. The index of the top-level node in the tree.

The property is read/write. The property has a default value of 0.

Remarks

To retrieve the TreeNode object, pass this index to the getTreeNode method.

The structure of the index returned by this method is a concatentation of the ordinal number of the parent node at each level counting through the tree from 0 down to the selected node and delimiting each level with a dot (.). The uppermost node in the top level of the tree is 0; the second node is 1, and so on. The node that immediately follows the first top-level node is 0.0; the second is 0.1, and so on. For example, for the index value 1.3.2, 1 is the second node at the top level of the tree; 3 is the fourth node under node 1; and 2 is the third node under node 1.3 and it is the selected node.

This property can only be set for visible TreeNode elements.
