nodeValue Property

Script Syntax

objValue = oXMLDOMNode.nodeValue;
objXMLDOMNode.nodeValue = objValue;

var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.4.0");
var currNode;
xmlDoc.async = false;
xmlDoc.async = false;
xmlDoc.loadXML("<root><!-- Hello --></root>");
currNode = xmlDoc.documentElement.childNodes.item(0);
if (currNode.nodeTypeString == "comment") {
  alert(currNode.nodeValue);
}

Visual Basic Syntax

objValue = oXMLDOMNode.nodeValue
objXMLDOMNode.nodeValue = objValue

Example

xmlDoc.Load ("books.xml")
Set currNode = xmlDoc.documentElement.childNodes.Item(0)
If currNode.nodeTypeString = "comment" Then
  MsgBox currNode.nodeValue
End If
