removeChild Method

Removes the specified child node from the list of children and returns it.

Copy 
var objXMLDOMNode = oXMLDOMNode.removeChild(childNode);

Parameters

childNode

An object. Child node to be removed from the list of children of this node.

Return Value

An object. Returns the removed child node.

Example

The following script example creates an IXMLDOMNode object (currNode), removes a child node from it, and displays the text of the removed node.

NoteNote

You can use books.xml to run this sample code.

JScript
Copy 
var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.6.0");
var root;
var currNode;
var oldChild;
xmlDoc.async = false;
xmlDoc.load("books.xml");
if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode != 0) {
   var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;
   WScript.Echo("You have error " + myErr.reason);
} else {
   root = xmlDoc.documentElement;
   currNode = root.childNodes.item(1);
   oldChild = currNode.removeChild(currNode.childNodes.item(1));
   WScript.Echo(oldChild.text);
}

Output

Midnight Rain

Copy 
HRESULT removeChild(
    IXMLDOMNode *childNode,
    IXMLDOMNode **outOldChild);

Parameters

childNode[in]

The child node to be removed from the list of children of this node.

outOldChild[out, retval]

The removed child node. If Null, the childNode object is not removed.

Return Values

S_OK

The value returned if successful.

E_INVALIDARG

The value returned if the oldChild parameter is not a child of this node, when the specified oldChild is read-only and cannot be removed, or when oldChild is Null.

E_FAIL
