The XPathResult
interface represents the results generated by evaluating an XPath expression within the context of a given node.
Since XPath expressions can result in a variety of result types, this interface makes it possible to determine and handle the type and value of the result.
Instance propertiesXPathResult.booleanValue
Read only
A boolean
representing the value of the result if resultType
is BOOLEAN_TYPE
.
XPathResult.invalidIteratorState
Read only
Signifies that the iterator has become invalid. It is true
if resultType
is UNORDERED_NODE_ITERATOR_TYPE
or ORDERED_NODE_ITERATOR_TYPE
and the document has been modified since this result was returned.
XPathResult.numberValue
Read only
A number
representing the value of the result if resultType
is NUMBER_TYPE
.
XPathResult.resultType
Read only
A number
code representing the type of the result, as defined by the type constants.
XPathResult.singleNodeValue
Read only
A Node
representing the value of the single node result, which may be null
.
XPathResult.snapshotLength
Read only
The number of nodes in the result snapshot.
XPathResult.stringValue
Read only
A string representing the value of the result if resultType
is STRING_TYPE
.
XPathResult.iterateNext()
If the result is a node set, this method iterates over it and returns the next node from it or null
if there are no more nodes.
XPathResult.snapshotItem()
Returns an item of the snapshot collection or null
in case the index is not within the range of nodes. Unlike the iterator result, the snapshot does not become invalid, but may not correspond to the current document if it is mutated.
ANY_TYPE
0
A result set containing whatever type naturally results from evaluation of the expression. Note that if the result is a node-set then UNORDERED_NODE_ITERATOR_TYPE
is always the resulting type. NUMBER_TYPE
1
A result containing a single number. This is useful for example, in an XPath expression using the count()
function. STRING_TYPE
2
A result containing a single string. BOOLEAN_TYPE
3
A result containing a single boolean value. This is useful for example, in an XPath expression using the not()
function. UNORDERED_NODE_ITERATOR_TYPE
4
A result node-set containing all the nodes matching the expression. The nodes may not necessarily be in the same order that they appear in the document. ORDERED_NODE_ITERATOR_TYPE
5
A result node-set containing all the nodes matching the expression. The nodes in the result set are in the same order that they appear in the document. UNORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE
6
A result node-set containing snapshots of all the nodes matching the expression. The nodes may not necessarily be in the same order that they appear in the document. ORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE
7
A result node-set containing snapshots of all the nodes matching the expression. The nodes in the result set are in the same order that they appear in the document. ANY_UNORDERED_NODE_TYPE
8
A result node-set containing any single node that matches the expression. The node is not necessarily the first node in the document that matches the expression. FIRST_ORDERED_NODE_TYPE
9
A result node-set containing the first node in the document that matches the expression. Specifications Browser compatibility See also
