IXMLDOMSelection::removeNext Method

Removes the next node that would be returned by peekNode or nextNode.

Visual Basic Syntax

Set objXMLDOMNode = objXMLDOMSelection.removeNext

C/C++ Syntax

HRESULT removeNext(IXMLDOMNode ** ppNode);

Parameters

ppNode [out]

The node that was removed, or Null if there is no nextNode to remove. If the parameter is Null, the removed node is not returned, but it is still removed.

C/C++ Return Values

S_OK

Value returned if the method is successful.

S_FALSE

Value returned if no nodes left in the selection.

E_PENDING

Value returned if all nodes cannot be found at this time (in which case no nodes are removed).

Remarks

The removeNext method is equivalent to the following (except that it also works for attributes):

var node = list.peeknode();
node.parentnode.removeChild(node);

The side effect is that the length of the collection is decremented and the nextNode and item methods will not return it because it has been removed.
