IXMLDOMCharacterData

Provides text manipulation methods that are used by several objects.

Jscript Example

var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.6.0");  
var nodeDescription;  
xmlDoc.async = false;  
xmlDoc.setProperty("SelectionLanguage", "XPath");  
xmlDoc.load("books.xml");  
if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode != 0) {  
   var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;  
   WScript.Echo("You have error " + myErr.reason);  
} else {  
   nodeDescription = xmlDoc.selectSingleNode("//description");  
   WScript.Echo(nodeDescription.text);  
}  
  

Remarks

IXMLDOMCharacterData does not directly correspond to any node type. Methods are reused by IXMLDOMCDATASection, IXMLDOMComment, and IXMLDOMText. These methods handle large amounts of text, including sizes larger than can be manipulated natively using string constructs.
