var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
��� if (xhttp.readyState == 4 && xhttp.status == 200) {
������� myFunction(xhttp);
��� }
};
xhttp.open("GET", "books.xml", true);
xhttp.send();
function myFunction(xml) {
var xmlDoc = xml.responseXML;
var x = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("book")[0];
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML =

var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
��� if (xhttp.readyState == 4 && xhttp.status == 200) {
������� myFunction(xhttp);
��� }
};
xhttp.open("GET", "books.xml", true);
xhttp.send();
//
Check if the last node is an element node
function get_lastchild(n) {
var x = n.lastChild;
while (x.nodeType != 1) {
x = x.previousSibling;
}
return
x;
}
function myFunction(xml) {
var xmlDoc = xml.responseXML;
var x = xmlDoc.documentElement;
var lastNode =
get_lastchild(x);
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML
=
lastNode.localName;
}
The output of the code above will be:
