I have an instance of MSXML2.DomDocument.
I wave to save it, with indenting.
This code works, but does not indent:
var dom = new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DomDocument");
// fiddle with dom here
dom.save(filename);
I think I can use an MXXMLWriter object to inject indenting.
How?
This oughta do it.
function saveDomWithIndent(dom, filename) {
var writer = new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.MXXMLWriter"),
reader = new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.SAXXMLReader"),
fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject"),
textStream = fso.CreateTextFile(filename, true);
writer.indent = true;
writer.omitXMLDeclaration = true;
reader.contentHandler = writer;
reader.parse(dom);
textStream.Write(writer.output);
textStream.Close();
}
Use it like this:
var root, node, newnode,
dom = new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument.6.0");
dom.async = false;
dom.resolveExternals = false;
dom.load(fullpath);
root = dom.documentElement;
node = root.selectSingleNode("/root/node1");
if (node !== null) {
newnode = dom.createElement('node2');
newnode.text = "hello";
root.appendChild(newnode);
saveDomWithIndent(dom, fullpath);
}
I could not figure out how to adjust the indent level. It always indents with a tab.
