Hi, here i have the code to convert the latesttopics.xml to latesttopics.html file to html using javascript
<script type="text/javascript">
var xDoc;
// verify that browser supports XML features and load external .xml file
function verifySupport(xFile) {
if (document.implementation && document.implementation.createDocument) {
// this is the W3C DOM way, supported so far only in NN6+
xDoc = document.implementation.createDocument("", "theXdoc", null);
} else if (typeof ActiveXObject != "undefined") {
// make sure real object is supported (sorry, IE5/Mac)
if (document.getElementById("msxml").async) {
xDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml.DOMDocument");
}
}
if (xDoc && typeof xDoc.load != "undefined") {
// load external file (from same domain)
xDoc.load(xFile);
return true;
} else {
var reply = confirm("This example requires a browser with XML support, " +
"such as IE5+/Windows or Netscape 6+.\n \nGo back to previous page?");
if (reply) {
history.back();
}
}
return false;
}
// Draw table from xDoc document tree data
function drawTable(tbody) {
var tr, td, i, j, oneRecord;
tbody = document.getElementById(tbody);
// node tree
var data = xDoc.getElementsByTagName("LatestTopics")[0];
// for td class attributes
var classes = ["ctr","","","","ctr"];
for (i = 0; i < data.childNodes.length; i++) {
// use only 1st level element nodes to skip 1st level text nodes in NN
if (data.childNodes[i].nodeType == 1) {
// one final match record
oneRecord = data.childNodes[i];
tr = tbody.insertRow(tbody.rows.length);
td = tr.insertCell(tr.cells.length);
td.setAttribute("class",classes[tr.cells.length-1]);
td.innerHTML =
oneRecord.getElementsByTagName("TopicTitle")[0].firstChild.nodeValue ; td = tr.insertCell(tr.cells.length);
td.setAttribute("class",classes[tr.cells.length-1]);
td.innerHTML =
oneRecord.getElementsByTagName("Author")[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
td = tr.insertCell(tr.cells.length);
td.setAttribute("class",classes[tr.cells.length-1]);
td.innerHTML =
oneRecord.getElementsByTagName("Category")[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
td = tr.insertCell(tr.cells.length);
}
}
}
function init(xFile) {
// confirm browser supports needed features and load .xml file
if (verifySupport(xFile)) {
// let file loading catch up to execution thread
setTimeout("drawTable('topics')", 1000);
}
}
