doctype Property1

 

Contains the document type node that specifies the document type definition (DTD) for this document.

Script Syntax

var objXMLDOMDocumentType = oXMLDOMDocument.doctype;  

Example

The following script example creates an IXMLDOMDocumentType object, and then displays the name property of the object.

var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.3.0");
var MyDocType;
xmlDoc.async = false;
xmlDoc.load("books.xml");
if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode != 0) {
   var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;
   WScript.Echo("You have error " + myErr.reason);
} else {
   MyDocType = xmlDoc.doctype;
   if (MyDocType != null) {
      WScript.Echo(MyDocType.name);
   }
}

Visual Basic Syntax

Set objXMLDOMDocumentType = oXMLDOMDocument.doctype  

C/C++ Syntax

HRESULT get_doctype(  
    IXMLDOMDocumentType **documentType);  

Parameters

documentType[out, retval]
For XML, the address of the node of type NODE_DOCUMENT_TYPE that specifies the DTD. Returns Null for for HTML documents and XML documents without a DTD.

C/C++ Return Values

S_OK
The value returned if successful.

S_FALSE
The value returned when there is no document type node.

E_INVALIDARG
The value returned if the documentType parameter is Null.

Remarks

The property is read-only. For XML, it points to the node of type NODE_DOCUMENT_TYPE that specifies the DTD. It returns Null for HTML documents and XML documents without a DTD.

An XML document can contain a document type declaration before the first element in the document. It starts with the tag <!DOCTYPE> and can specify an external DTD.
