Hello folks! welcome back to a new edition of our tutorial on XML DOM. In this tutorial, we are going to be studying about the XML DOM baseURI attribute.
The baseURI attribute is used to specify the absolute base URI of the node.
The baseURI attribute is used to specify the absolute base URI of the node.
Syntax
The following below is the syntax to use the baseURI attribute -
nodeObject.baseURI
Example
Following below are the node.xml contents -
<?xml version = "1.0"?> <Company> <Employee category = "Technical"> <FirstName>Kennedy</FirstName> <LastName>Nkpara</LastName> <ContactNo>1234567890</ContactNo> <Email>kennedynkpara@xyz.com</Email> </Employee> <Employee category = "Non-Technical"> <FirstName>Stephanie</FirstName> <LastName>Francis</LastName> <ContactNo>1234667898</ContactNo> <Email>stephaniefrancis@xyz.com</Email> </Employee> <Employee category = "Management"> <FirstName>Justice</FirstName> <LastName>Dauglas</LastName> <ContactNo>1234562350</ContactNo> <Email>justicedauglas@xyz.com</Email> </Employee> </Company>
READ: XML DOM | Node Object
The following example below illustrates the usage of the baseURI attribute -
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <script> function loadXMLDoc(filename) { if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest(); } else // code for IE5 and IE6 { xhttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } xhttp.open("GET",filename,false); xhttp.send(); return xhttp.responseXML; } </script> </head> <body> <script> xmlDoc = loadXMLDoc("/dom/node.xml"); x = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName('Employee')[0]; document.write("Base URI: "+x.baseURI); </script> </body> </html>
Output
Save the file as nodeattribute_baseuri.html on the server's path (this file and node.xml should be on the same path in your server). This gives us the following output below -
Base URI: https://www.webdesigntutorialz.com/dom/node.xml
