"Use the appendChild Method of the XMLDOM Object to add the objRoot "Element Reference to the XML Document.
objDom.appendChild objRoot
"Now, following the same steps, you will create references to the "child elements for the XML Document. The only difference is, when the "child elements are appended to the document, you will call the "appendChild Method of the IXMLDOMElement Object rather than the "appendChild Method of the XMLDOM Object. By using the IXMLDOMElement "to append the children, you are differentiating (and applying tiered "structure to) the child elements from the root element.
Set objChild1 = objDom.createElement("childElement1") objRoot.appendChild objChild1 Set objChild1 = objDom.createElement("childElement2") objRoot.appendChild objChild2
"The final step to take care of before saving this document is to add "an XML processing instruction. This is necessary so that XML parsers "will recognize this document as an XML document.
Set objPI = objDom.createProcessingInstruction("xml","vertsion="1.0"")
"Call the insertBefore Method of the XMLDOM Object in order to insert "the processing instruction before the root element (the zero element "in the XMLDOM childNodes Collection).
objDom.insertBefore objPI, objDom.childNodes(0)
"Calling the Save Method of the XMLDOM Object will save this XML "document to your disk drive. In this case, the document will be saved "to the "c:" drive and will be named "MyXMLDoc.xml". When saving an "XML document, if the file does not exist, it will be created. If it "does exist, it will be overwritten.
objDom.Save "c:MyXMLDoc.xml"

文檔被存檔之后,如果你再打開這個文檔,那么則會以如下代碼列表形式出現:
MyXMLDoc.xml:
在"MyXMLDoc.xml"文檔中,childElement1 和 childElement2 會以空的elements形式出現。如果它們被賦值,那么每個值都將由標記符括起來。 現在,讓我們來思考一下如何將HTML數據寫到XML文檔中去。我們已經知道該如何創建和存儲XML文檔。將一個表單數據寫到XML文檔中去的過程,現在已演變成為Request Object"s Form Collection以及將每一個表單域的value書定到XML element value 中去的步驟重復。以上可以通過ASP來完成。 例:將數據輸送到XML 現在,我們舉一個普通的HTML表單的例子來說明。此Form有用戶名,地址,電話,以及E-MAIL等幾個域。并將這些信息寫入XML文件中并保存。
