Returns the node type in string form.
strValue = oXMLDOMNode.nodeTypeString
String. The property is read-only. It contains the string version of the node type. To return the enumeration value, use the nodeType property.
This value depends on the value of the nodeType property:
| NODE_ATTRIBUTE | attribute |
| NODE_CDATA_SECTION | cdatasection |
| NODE_COMMENT | comment |
| NODE_DOCUMENT | document |
| NODE_DOCUMENT_FRAGMENT | documentfragment |
| NODE_DOCUMENT_TYPE | documenttype |
| NODE_ELEMENT | element |
| NODE_ENTITY | entity |
| NODE_ENTITY_REFERENCE | entityreference |
| NODE_NOTATION | notation |
| NODE_PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION | processinginstruction |
| NODE_TEXT | text |
This member is an extension of the W3C DOM.
The following VBScript example creates an XMLDOMNode object and displays its node type in string form (in this case, "element"):
Dim xmlDoc
Dim currNode
Set xmlDoc = CreateObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument")
xmlDoc.async = False
xmlDoc.load("c:\books.xml")
Set currNode = xmlDoc.documentElement.childNodes.item(0)
MsgBox currNode.nodeTypeString
