IXMLDOMDocument::load Method

Loads an XML document from the specified location.

Syntax

HRESULT load(
    BSTR url,
    VARIANT_BOOL * isSuccessful);

Parameters

url

[in] Universal resource locator (URL) that specifies the location of the XML file.

isSuccessful

[out] True if the load succeeded, or false if the load failed.

Return Value

Returns S_OK if successful, or an error code otherwise.

Remarks

If the URL cannot be resolved or accessed or does not reference an XML document, this method returns an error and sets the IDOMDocument interface's documentElement property to null.

Calling load or loadXML on an existing document immediately discards the content of the document.
