Example
The following example opens an XML document or form template for customization, whose location is specified by the value for the strTempLoc variable that is passed to the CustomizeTemplate2 method. The example assumes the existence of a form named frmCustomizeDoc that has one input box named TempLocation.
<script language="JavaScript">
function customizeDocument()
{
// Create an instance of the OpenXMLDocuments object.
xmlDocObject = new ActiveXObject("SharePoint.OpenXMLDocuments.1");
// If the OpenXMLDocuments object was successfully created,
// get the template location from the form's input box.
if (xmlDocObject)
{
var strTempLoc = document.frmCustomizeDoc.TempLocation.value;
// Open the XML document or form template for customization.
xmlDocObject.CustomizeTemplate2(window, strTempLoc);
}
}
</script>
