data Property (IXMLDOMProcessingInstruction)
Retrieves and sets the content of the processing instruction, excluding the target.
[Script]
Script Syntax
strValue = oXMLDOMProcessingInstruction.data; objXMLDOMProcessingInstruction.data = strValue;
Example
The following script example iterates through the document's child nodes. If it finds a node of type NODE_PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION (7), it displays the node's data.
var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.5.0"); var pi; xmlDoc.load("books.xml"); if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode <> 0) { var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError; alert("You have error " + myErr.reason); } else { for (var i=0; i<xmlDoc.childNodes.length; i++) { if (xmlDoc.childNodes.item(i).nodeType == 7) { pi = xmlDoc.childNodes.item(i); alert(pi.data); } } }
[Visual Basic]
Visual Basic Syntax
strValue = oXMLDOMProcessingInstruction.data objXMLDOMProcessingInstruction.data = strValue

The following Microsoft® Visual Basic® example iterates through the document's child nodes. If it finds a node of type NODE_PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION (7), it displays the node's data.
Dim xmlDoc As New Msxml2.DOMDocument50 Dim pi As IXMLDOMProcessingInstruction xmlDoc.Load ("books.xml") If (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode <> 0) Then Dim myErr Set myErr = xmlDoc.parseError MsgBox("You have error " & myErr.reason) Else For i = 0 To (xmlDoc.childNodes.length - 1) If xmlDoc.childNodes.Item(i).nodeType = _ NODE_PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION Then Set pi = xmlDoc.childNodes.Item(i) MsgBox pi.Data End If Next End If
