Easy and Lightweight Tag Notation

//TAG NOTATION INIT - CALL FROM XML.onLoad FUNCTION function tagNotation(xmltarget){ //this is a relatively lightweight function which allows you to use easy tag notation with your XML //example: //XMLcontent.library.books.book[0].chapter[1].atributes.title // //generates references on all nodes to children name after their chilren's name //if more than one tag is found, it creates an array instead of single reference tagChildren(xmltarget);//init tagging of children //recusive function function tagChildren(node){ for(var i=0 ; i<node.childNodes.length ; i++){//loop through current recursion node's children child = node.childNodes[i];//reference for speed if(node[child.nodeName]==undefined){//if no tag has been found with this name yet node[child.nodeName] = child ;//set a simple reference }else{//if a tag by this name has already been found - it returns an array if(node[child.nodeName].length==undefined){//if no array has been generated yet temp = node[child.nodeName];//save the one found so far node[child.nodeName]=new Array();//reset the reference as an array node[child.nodeName][0] = temp;//set the saved first match so far } node[child.nodeName].push(child);//add this node to the array } //child.addProperty(child.nodeName, function(){ return child }, null); if(child.hasChildNodes){//if current recursion node's child has children tagChildren(child)//recurse } } } } Posted by: ABeall | website http://abeall.com
