XML DOM specified Attribute



Definition and Usage

The specified attribute returns true if the attribute value is set in the document, and false if it is a default value from the DTD/Schema.

Syntax


Example

The following code snippet uses loadXMLDoc() to load "books.xml" into xmlDoc and displays the name and value of the category attribute:

Example

xmlDoc=loadXMLDoc("books.xml");
x=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName('book');

for(i=0;i<x.length;i++)
{
  document.write(x.item(i).attributes[0].specified);
  document.write("<br>");
}

Output:

true
true
true
true
