parseError Property

Returns an IXMLDOMParseError object that contains information about the last parsing error.

Script Syntax

var objError = objXMLDOMDocument.parseError;

Example

The following script example uses the document's parseError property to create an IXMLDOMParseError object. It then tests the error and displays a message if one occurs.

var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.4.0");  
var myErr;  
xmlDoc.async = false;  
xmlDoc.load("books.xml");  
if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode <> 0) {     
var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;     
alert("You have error " + myErr.reason);  } 
else {     myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;     
if (myErr.errorCode != 0) {        
alert("You have error " + myErr.reason);     
}  }

Remarks

The property is read-only. It returns IXMLDOMParseError.

This member is an extension of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Document Object Model (DOM).
