Example for Display XML Data in HTML
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
{
xhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
}
else // Internet Explorer 5/6
{
xhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
xhttp.open("GET","cd_catalog.xml",false);
xhttp.send("");
xmlDoc=xhttp.responseXML;
document.write("<table border='1'>");
var x=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("CD");
for (i=0;i<x.length;i++)
{
document.write("<tr><td>");
document.write(x[i].getElementsByTagName("ARTIST")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
document.write("</td><td>");
document.write(x[i].getElementsByTagName("TITLE")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
document.write("</td></tr>");
}
document.write("</table>");
</script>
</body>
</html>
Example explained
*****************
* We check the browser, and load the XML using the correct parser (explained in the previous chapter)
* We create an HTML table with <table border="1">
* We use getElementsByTagName() to get all XML CD nodes
* For each CD node, we display data from ARTIST and TITLE as table data.
* We end the table with </table>
