saving xml in javascript

W

WOW!! I like it! http://www.avwzioni.org/figa

Hi all. I have the following problem. I have an xml file, while I will
list below and I am trying to add nodes to the xml document based on
user input to a form.

The XML doc is ...

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<board>
<message>
<author> Author One </author>
<comment> This is the first test comment </comment>
</message>
<message>
<author> Author Two </author>
<comment> This is the second test comment </comment>
</message>
<message>
<author> Author Three </author>
<comment> This is the third test comment </comment>
</message>
</board>


The code I have to insert a new node is ....

<script type="text/javascript">
var xmlDoc;
var xmlObj;
var author;
var comment;
var message;
function loadXMLDoc() {

xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
xmlDoc.async="false";
xmlDoc.load("Guestbook.xml");
xmlObj=xmlDoc.documentElement;
processInput();
}

function processInput() {
var new_message=xmlDoc.createElement('message');
var new_author=xmlDoc.createElement('author');
var new_comment=xmlDoc.createElement('comment');
var new_author_text=new_author.createTextNode('author test
works');
var new_comment_text=new_comment.createTextNode('comment test
works');
new_message.appendChild(new_author);
new_message.appendChild(new_comment);
xmlObj.appendChild(new_message);
xmlDoc.save("Guestbook.xml");
}

</script>


Currently when I execute this is makes no change whatsoever to the xml
file. What I expected was to open the xml doc manually and see 4 child
nodes of the root instead of 3 as shown above in the xml listing. Any
thoughts or ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

Also of note is the above code is in the head section of a JSP file.
Just using JSP instead of HTML file but no jsp code is actually in the
file, just html.

Thanks,
Charles

It is not possible, by JavaScript policy, to save a document in the
client side.

You might ask for that using a server side script writen in php for
example...

This is only true if your web page is being served by a web server.
If the web page is a local file on a hard drive that you have rights
to, then the save method works. I use it all the time to write
browser-based applications that dont require a web server to exist on
the users machine. They just click a local html file fill out the
form and save away.

Also, for IE I would also suggest you instantiate the DOM in this
manner: as the class name you are using in the example will give you a
very old version 3 of the DOM, now that the DOM is installed side-by-
side on windows new releases, there is no longer a single clsid for
the DOM. The function below will return the most recent version that
the machine has installed. Also in your type of app make sure the
async property is set to false.



function getXMLDom() {
// Please use the highest version of XML that is currently installed
on your machine
var locXML
try {
locXML = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.6.0")
}
catch(e) {
try {
locXML = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.5.0")
}
catch(e) {
try {
locXML = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.4.0")

Oops, I'm finding my own bugs, the function previously posted should
end like this:

if (typeof(locXML) == 'undefined') {
alert('Error: you must have the XML DOM installed')
return null
} else {
locXML.async = false
locXML.validateOnParse = true;
locXML.resolveExternals = true;

var new_comment_text=new_comment.createTextNode('comment test
works');
new_message.appendChild(new_author);
new_message.appendChild(new_comment);
xmlObj.appendChild(new_message);
xmlDoc.save("Guestbook.xml");
}

</script>


Currently when I execute this is makes no change whatsoever to the xml
file. What I expected was to open the xml doc manually and see 4 child
nodes of the root instead of 3 as shown above in the xml listing. Any
thoughts or ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

Also of note is the above code is in the head section of a JSP file.
Just using JSP instead of HTML file but no jsp code is actually in the
file, just html.

Thanks,
Charles

Hi all. I have the following problem. I have an xml file, while I will
list below and I am trying to add nodes to the xml document based on
user input to a form.

The XML doc is ...

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<board>
<message>
<author> Author One </author>
<comment> This is the first test comment </comment>
</message>
<message>
<author> Author Two </author>
<comment> This is the second test comment </comment>
</message>
<message>
<author> Author Three </author>
<comment> This is the third test comment </comment>
</message>
</board>


The code I have to insert a new node is ....

<script type="text/javascript">
var xmlDoc;
var xmlObj;
var author;
var comment;
var message;
function loadXMLDoc() {

xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
xmlDoc.async="false";
xmlDoc.load("Guestbook.xml");
xmlObj=xmlDoc.documentElement;
processInput();
}

function processInput() {
var new_message=xmlDoc.createElement('message');
var new_author=xmlDoc.createElement('author');
var new_comment=xmlDoc.createElement('comment');
var new_author_text=new_author.createTextNode('author test
works');
var new_comment_text=new_comment.createTextNode('comment test
works');
new_message.appendChild(new_author);
new_message.appendChild(new_comment);
xmlObj.appendChild(new_message);
xmlDoc.save("Guestbook.xml");
}

</script>

This is only true if your web page is being served by a web server.
If the web page is a local file on a hard drive that you have rights
to, then the save method works. I use it all the time to write
browser-based applications that dont require a web server to exist on
the users machine. They just click a local html file fill out the
form and save away.

right !

are you able to do that saving of a file with JavaSCript , which code ?

i do have an application for that :

the user select an area on the browser window and the javascript save
that part locally, usefull, for example when u read an article online
and want to avoid saving pub.

Actually, I'm wrong, you're correct about pure javascript. I've been
using the Micosoft ActiveX XMLDOM not the java XMLDOM, but my code is
still javascript. Here is the object I use:

locXML = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.5.0")
//locXML = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.4.0")
//locXML = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.3.0")
//locXML = new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument.5.0")
//locXML = new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument.4.0")
//locXML = new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument.3.0")

if (typeof(locXML) == 'undefined') {
alert('Error: you must have the XML DOM installed')
} else {
locXML.async = false
locXML.validateOnParse = true;
locXML.resolveExternals = true;
locXML.setProperty("SelectionLanguage", "XPath");
}
locXML.load(my file name)
locXML.save(my file name)



Sorry about the confusion, you do need activeX.

OK, no prob ;-)

i think ActiveX doesn't exists on MacOS X right ?

in the past (about 8 years ago) it was a trick (really unusual and
complicated) to save a file, from Nestscape 4.0.x using JavaScript.

i don't remember the procedure.
