IXMLDOMDocument.createElement (Visual Basic .NET)
The createElement method creates an element node using the specified name.
Syntax
IXMLDOMElement = IXMLDOMDocument .createElement( strtagName As String )
Parameters
strtagName
[in] String specifying the name for the new element node. The name is case-sensitive. This name is subsequently available as the element node's nodeName property.
Return Values
Returns the IXMLDOMElement object for the new element.
Remarks
Creating an element with this method is the same as using createNode where the type parameter value is NODE_ELEMENT and no namespace is specified.
To add the new object, you must explicitly call one of the node insert methods, insertBefore, replaceChild, or appendChild.
The nodeType property has the value NODE_ELEMENT.
Example Code
The following example creates an element called "media" and appends it to the root element.
Imports interop_msxml Imports Microsoft.WindowsMediaServices.Interop On Error GoTo Err ' Declare variables. Dim Server As New WMSServerClass() Dim Playlist As IXMLDOMDocument Dim root As IXMLDOMElement Dim newElem As IXMLDOMElement ' Create a new playlist object. Set Playlist = Server.CreatePlaylist ' Load a playlist. Playlist.Load ("file://c:\wmpub\wmroot\simple.wsx") ' Retrieve the root element. Set root = Playlist.documentElement ' Create a new element and append it to the root element. Set newElem = Playlist.createElement("media") root.childNodes.Item(1).appendChild newElem Exit Sub Err: ' TODO: Handle errors.
