The following example illustrates the usage of the XML DOM notationName 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/notation.xml"); x = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName('address'); document.write("Name of the attribute notation is : ") document.write(x.item(0).attributes[0].nodeName); document.write("<br>") document.write("Value of the attribute notation is : "); document.write(x.item(0).attributes[0].nodeValue); </script> </body> </html>
Output
Save this file as entity_notations.html on the server's path (this file and the notation.xml should be on the same path in your server). This is going to give us the following output below -
Name of the attribute notation is : name Value of the attribute notation is : Kennedy
