In this third and final article of this series I demonstrate the use of Xerces, which is the most popular Java-based implementation of DOM. In this article's first section I develop a couple of Java classes that can create and process SOAP messages.

A lightweight object that is useful for tree insert operations.

Represents the text content of an element or attribute.

While many potential uses of XML result in fragments of XML text, not complete documents, XML parsers require complete documents to do their jobs properly. I have been running an XML-based servlet to conduct online surveys. It records user responses by adding XML formatted data to a continuously growing cumulative file. I needed a way to analyze survey responses on the fly without going to the trouble of copying the file and adding the markup required to create a complete document.

White Space and the DOM. To achieve maximum performance, when a text file is opened...As a result, a node in an XML DOM document "knows" that at least one occurrence of white space follows or precedes it, but does not know exactly how much white space there was. This method is efficient...

The IMXWriter interface is a complementary application programming interface (API) to the latest version of the Simple API for XML (SAX2) implementation of Microsoft® XML Core Services (MSXML). MSXML provides two CoClasses that implement IMXWriter.

In this third and final article of this series I demonstrate the use of Xerces, which is the most popular Java-based implementation of DOM This will demonstrate the basic DOM features of Xerces. In the second section I demonstrate the use of some other important features, including:

This second article discusses MSXML in detail. I use MSXML DOM to perform a WSDL to HTML transformation in order to generate a user interface for a web service.

Microsoft® XML Core Services (MSXML) makes XSLT services available from the Document Object Model (DOM). This integration of XSLT with the DOM makes XML applications simpler and more powerful. XSLT becomes a general service for locating and manipulating XML data in Web pages, server-side applications, and stand-alone applications.

Using an XML DOM processor to create XML documents is relatively straightforward. Making these documents namespace aware is also easy; however, if you create a namespace-aware DOM, when you output the DOM as a text file the namespace data is lost.

The W3C Document Object Model is a "platform- and language-neutral interface that will allow programs and scripts to dynamically access and update the content, structure and style of documents. The document can be further processed and the results of that processing can be incorporated back into the presented page."

There are several popular commercial COM components that retrieve data from other web sites via HTTP requests, such as AspTear and AspHTTP. There is another lesser know option from Microsoft, however. Microsoft's suite of XML DOM (Document Object Model) components includes the XMLHTTP object.

The Method Represents the top level of the XML source. Includes members for retrieving and creating all other XML objects.

The following tutorials demonstrate common DOM tasks.

This article will show you how to build an interface that can read any JDBC-compatible relational database, creating a ResultSet that can later be translated into almost any type of character output.

microdom was originally designed as the underlying library for a Python web templating framework called Woven. Starting out as a generic implementation of a subset of the W3C XML DOM API for manipulating XML trees, microdom quickly grew to support HTML-specific features.

In this short article, I'll talk about how the "HTML Web" is moving towards the "XML Web".

This method processes this node and its children using the supplied XSL Transformations (XSLT) style sheet and returns the resulting transformation in the supplied object.

This starter kit is designed to provide tools and information for working with XML and the Document Object Model (DOM).

W3C is pleased to announce the advancement of two Document Object Model (DOM) specifications to Candidate Recommendations. With DOM Level 3 Core, software developers and Web script authors can access and manipulate HTML and XML content.
