Navigating the Named Node Map

As with a node list, you can access members of the named node map by index using the item method. You can also access the members of a named node map name by using the following methods.

• getNamedItem method

  The getNamedItem method takes the name of the desired node as a parameter.

  The following code retrieves the value of the ID attribute on the <elem1> element and assigns that value to the variable idValue.

  idValue = elem1.attributes.getNamedItem("ID").nodeValue

• getQualifiedItem method

  The getQualifiedItem method takes the name and namespace URI of the desired node.

Each method returns an IXMLDOMNode object.

Like the IXMLDOMNodeList, IXMLDOMNamedNodeMap exposes the nextNode property.
