ownerDocument Property

 

Returns the root of the document that contains the node.

Script Syntax

var objXMLDOMDocument = oXMLDOMNode.ownerDocument;  

Example

The following script example uses the ownerDocument property to return the parent DOMDocument object, and then displays that object's root element tag name.

var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.3.0");
var currNode;
var owner;
xmlDoc.async = false;
xmlDoc.load("books.xml");
if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode != 0) {
   var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;
   WScript.Echo("You have error " + myErr.reason);
} else {
   currNode =    xmlDoc.documentElement.childNodes.item(0).childNodes.item(1);
   owner = currNode.ownerDocument;
   WScript.Echo(owner.documentElement.tagName);
}

Visual Basic Syntax

Set objXMLDOMDocument = oXMLDOMNode.ownerDocument  

C/C++ Syntax

HRESULT get_ownerDocument(  
    IXMLDOMDocument **DOMDocument);  

Parameters

DOMDocument[out, retval]
Address of the parent document object that represents the root of the document.

C/C++ Return Values

S_OK
Value returned if successful.

E_INVALIDARG
Value returned if the DOMDocument parameter is Null.

Remarks

The property is read-only. It returns the parent document that represents the root of the document to which this node belongs.

All nodes are created in the context of a document, and the ownerDocument property is maintained until the node is added to another document. For a node removed from a document, this property indicates the document in which the node was last included.
