XML DOM xml attribute
Definition and Usage
The xml attribute can return the XML of the node and its descendants.
Syntax:
documentObject.xml
Example
In all examples, we will use the XML file books.xml, as well as the JavaScript function loadXMLDoc().
The following code snippet can display the XML of the XML document:
xmlDoc=loadXMLDoc("books.xml");
document.write("<xmp>" + xmlDoc.xml + "</xmp>");
Output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
