Syntax
The following below is the syntax to use the XML DOM createDocumentType Method -
Document doc = document.implementation.createDocumentType(qualifiedName, publicId, systemId);
Parameter Details
- qualifiedName is the qualified name of the document element to be created.
- publicId is the external subset public identifier.
- systemId external subset system identifier.
- It returns a new DocumentType with Node.ownerDocument set to null.
Example
The following example illustrates the usage of the createDocumentType method -
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <script> var dt = document.implementation.createDocumentType('svg:svg', '-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN', 'http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd'); var d = document.implementation.createDocument('http://www.w3.org/2000/svg', 'svg:svg', dt); document.write(d.doctype.publicId); // -//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN </script> </body> </html>
Output
Save this file as domimplementation_createdocumenttype.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 -
-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN
