The Entity Object publicId attribute returns the public identifier of the associated entity or returns null.
Syntax
The following below is the syntax to use the publicId Attribute -

Example
Following are the notation.xml contents -
<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8" standalone = "no"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"> <address id = "firstelement"> <name>Kennedy Nkpara</name > <company>WebDesignTutorialz</company> <phone>(011) 123-4567</phone> </address>
READ: XML DOM | Entity Object
The following example illustrates the usage of the XML DOM publicId 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_xhtml.xml"); document.write("<b>publicid :</b> "+xmlDoc.doctype.publicId); </script> </body> </html>
Output
Save this file as entity_publicId.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 -
publicid : -//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN
