XML DOM async Property
Complete Document Object Reference
Definition and Usage
The async property specifies whether downloading of an XML file should be
handled asynchronously or not.
True means that the load() method returns the
control to the caller before the download is complete.
False means that the
download must be completed before the caller gets the control back.
Syntax
Example
The following code fragment loads "books.xml"
into xmlDoc using
loadXMLDoc(). The loadXMLDoc()
function uses the async property:
function loadXMLDoc(dname)
{
try //Internet Explorer
{
xmlDoc=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
}
catch(e)
{
try //Firefox, Mozilla, Opera, etc.
{
xmlDoc=document.implementation.createDocument("","",null);
}
catch(e) {alert(e.message)}
}
try
{
xmlDoc.async=false;
xmlDoc.load(dname);
return(xmlDoc);
}
catch(e) {alert(e.message)}
return(null);
}
