#135975 - 2005-03-19 07:57 PM XML Discussion
Shawn Shawn Administrator Registered: 1999-08-13 Posts: 8611	Was just trying to hand-job a convert of one of my scripts, from using INI files to XML files ... not using the UDF's we developed right now, will be - but not right now ... basically I am saving the properties of an object. Based on my read so far, this is how one would go about doing this (the object in this case is a GridView) ... Code: $xml = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM") If Not $xml Return Endif $grid = $xml.AppendChild($xml.CreateElement("grid")) $grid.AppendChild($xml.CreateElement("AllowSorting")).Text = $GridView.AllowSorting $grid.AppendChild($xml.CreateElement("RowCount")).Text = $GridView.RowCount $grid.AppendChild($xml.CreateElement("ColumnCount")).Text = $GridView.ColumnCount $= $xml.Save($SaveFileDialog.Filename) Return Its this stuff here I am scratching my head over: $grid.AppendChild($xml.CreateElement("RowCount")).Text = $GridView.RowCount Does one really need to create an element at the document level ($xml), then explicitly APPEND it to a child node, is this really the proper way of building the XML file, or am I missing a more simpler way. -Shawn

Shawn Shawn Administrator Registered: 1999-08-13 Posts: 8611	One would think (intuitively) that one could just create a child element right from the parent, like this: $parent = $xml.CreateElement("parent") $child = $root.CreateElement("child") Doesn't seem to work like that though ...

krabourn krabourn Hey THIS is FUN Registered: 2000-12-11 Posts: 244 Loc: San Antonio, Texas, USA	I have have been casually following all this XML stuff since I can't thik of a reason for me to use it yet, so I may be off. But, shouldn't it be... $parent = $xml.CreateElement("parent") $child = $parent.CreateElement("child") _________________________ Kelly

Shawn Shawn Administrator Registered: 1999-08-13 Posts: 8611	Hey Schulie whats up. Haven't played much with XML since I did some scripting of a skinned RSS reader in KF while back. Couple of questions: 1) You using UDF wrappers ? 2) You using 4.60 ? I gave up using the wrappers, found it was just easier, less frustrating and more flexible to use the COM object directly. And 4.60 has some nasty com issues. -Shawn
