abstract member CreateElement : string -> Org.W3c.Dom.IElementParameters
- tagName
- String
The name of the element type to instantiate. For XML, this is case-sensitive, otherwise it depends on the case-sensitivity of the markup language in use. In that case, the name is mapped to the canonical form of that markup by the DOM implementation.
Returns
A new Element object with the
nodeName attribute set to tagName, and
localName, prefix, and
namespaceURI set to null.
- Attributes
Exceptions
INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: Raised if the specified name is not an XML
name according to the XML version in use specified in the
Document.xmlVersion attribute.
Remarks
Creates an element of the type specified. Note that the instance returned implements the Element interface, so attributes can be specified directly on the returned object. <br>In addition, if there are known attributes with default values, Attr nodes representing them are automatically created and attached to the element. <br>To create an element with a qualified name and namespace URI, use the createElementNS method.
