Example

The following code loads "books_comment.xml" into xmlDoc and replaces "Simple" with "Easy" in the comment node of the first <book> element:

var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
   if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {
       myFunction(this);
   }
};
xhttp.open("GET", "books_comment.xml", true);
xhttp.send();
function myFunction(xml) {
    var x, i, txt, xmlDoc;
    xmlDoc = xml.responseXML;
   txt = "";
    x = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("book")[0].childNodes;
    for (i = 0; i < x.length; i++) {
    // Process only comment nodes
        if (x[i].nodeType == 8) {
            x[i].replaceData(4, 6, "Easy");
            txt += x[i].data + "<br>";
        }
    }
    document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = txt;
}

亲自试一试

在上面的例子中,我们使用了循环和 if 测试语句,以确保我们只处理注释节点。注释节点的节点类型为 8。
