abort Method (DOMDocument)
Aborts an asynchronous download in progress.
JScript Syntax
oXMLDOMDocument.abort();
Example
var xmlDoc;
xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.6.0");
xmlDoc.async = true;
xmlDoc.onreadystatechange = doOnReadyStateChange;
xmlDoc.load("books.xml");
if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode != 0) {
var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;
WScript.Echo("You have error " + myErr.reason);
}
function doOnReadyStateChange () {
if (xmlDoc.readyState == 1) {
xmlDoc.abort();
}
}
C/C++ Syntax
HRESULT abort(
void
);
Return Values
S_OK
The value returned if successful.
Remarks
This method stops download and parsing and discards any portion of the XML tree already built. IXMLDOMParseError indicates that the download was stopped.
If the readyState property has the value COMPLETED, no action is taken and the current document is unchanged.
