XmlDocument.CreateTextNode Method (String)
.NET Framework (current version)
Creates an XmlText with the specified text.
Assembly: System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)
Parameters
- text
-
Type:
System.String
The text for the Text node.
Although this method creates the new object in the context of the document, it does not automatically add the new object to the document tree. To add the new object, you must explicitly call one of the node insert methods.
According to the W3C Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 recommendation (www.w3.org/TR/1998/REC-xml-19980210), Text nodes are only allowed within Element, Attribute and EntityReference nodes.
The following example creates a new element and adds it to the document.
Option Explicit Option Strict Imports System Imports System.IO Imports System.Xml Public Class Sample Public Shared Sub Main() 'Create the XmlDocument. Dim doc As New XmlDocument() doc.LoadXml("<book genre='novel' ISBN='1-861001-57-5'>" & _ "<title>Pride And Prejudice</title>" & _ "</book>") 'Create a new node and add it to the document. 'The text node is the content of the price element. Dim elem As XmlElement = doc.CreateElement("price") Dim text As XmlText = doc.CreateTextNode("19.95") doc.DocumentElement.AppendChild(elem) doc.DocumentElement.LastChild.AppendChild(text) Console.WriteLine("Display the modified XML...") doc.Save(Console.Out) End Sub 'Main End Class 'Sample
