XML DOM - createdocument Method


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 createDocument Method.

The XML DOM createDocument method is used to create a DOM Document object of a specified type with its document element.

Syntax

The following below is the syntax to use the XML DOM createdocument Method -

Document doc = document.implementation.createDocument
   (namespaceURI, qualifiedNameStr, documentType);


Parameter Details

  • namespaceURI is the namespace URI of the document element to be created or null.
  • qualifiedName is the qualified name of the document element to be created or null.
  • doctype is the type of document to be created or null.
  • This method returns a new Document object with its document element.

Example

The following example illustrates the usage of the createDocument method -

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
   <body>
      <script>
         var doc = document.implementation.createDocument ('http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml', 
            'html', null);
         var body = document.createElementNS('http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml', 'body');
         body.setAttribute('id', 'Company');
         doc.documentElement.appendChild(body);
         document.write(doc.getElementById('Company')); // [object HTMLBodyElement]
      </script>
   </body>
</html>

Output

Save this file as domimplementation_createdocument.html on the server path (this file and node.xml should be on the same path in your server). This gives us the following output below -

[object HTMLBodyElement]
