Hi.
I'm trying to get information from a XML document, but my script doesn't work.
Here is my code:

code:

---

36: var xml = new ActiveXObject( "Microsoft.XMLDOM" );
37:
38: var xmlOpdaterFil = MsgPlus.ScriptFilesPath + "\\kanal.xml";
39: xml.load(xmlOpdaterFil);
40:     
41: var hentKanal = xml.selectNodes("/Item/Kanal");
42:
43: kanal = hentKanal[1].text;

---

I have tried to translate the error from danish to english:

code:

---

Function called: OnEvent_Uninitialize
The script is stopped
The script is starting
The script is started and ready
Function called: OnEvent_Initialize
Error: An object is obligatory (code: -2146827864)
       File: TV Guide.js. Line: 43.
Function OnEvent_Initialize gave an error. Code: -2147352567

---

Anyone who knows why it doesn't work?

Thanks in advance.

code:

---

43: kanal = xml.hentKanal[1].text;

---

maybe that?

43: kanal = hentKanal[1].text;

It looks like the selectNodes call isn't returning any nodes.

Select Nodes returns an Array of the nodes.

code:

---

36: var xml = new ActiveXObject( "Microsoft.XMLDOM" );
37:
38: var xmlOpdaterFil = MsgPlus.ScriptFilesPath + "\\kanal.xml";
39: xml.load(xmlOpdaterFil);
40:
41: var hentKanal = xml.selectNodes("/Item/Kanal");
42:
43: for (var i=0; i<hentKanal.length; i++) {
44:     Debug.Trace(hentKanal[i]);
45: }

When I use the code Matty have posted it says:

code:

---

Function called: OnEvent_Uninitialize
Script has been stopped
Script is starting
Script is now loaded and ready
Function called: OnEvent_Initialize
Error: Types doesn't match (code: -2146828275)
       File: TV Guide.js. Line: 45.
Function OnEvent_Initialize returned an error. Code: -2147352567

But actually it's only one thing in the XML, I need, I just thought it was easier to make it as an array and then choose number one in the array, but it must be possible just to choose one "node"?

This is my XML:

code:

---

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?>
<Item>
    <Kanal>1</Kanal>
</Item>

Arrays are 0 based so they start at 0, not 1, so 1 really = 2 in the array index

Hi.
Oh, thanks -dt-!
It's so embarrassing I forgot that!

So, here is the final script:

code:

---

    var xmlOpdaterFil = MsgPlus.ScriptFilesPath + "\\kanal.xml";
    xml.load(xmlOpdaterFil);

    var xml = new ActiveXObject( "Microsoft.XMLDOM" );

    var xmlOpdaterFil = MsgPlus.ScriptFilesPath + "\\kanal.xml";
    xml.load(xmlOpdaterFil);

    var hentKanal = xml.selectNodes("/Item/Kanal");

    kanal = hentKanal[0].text;

Thanks to everybody for helping!
