JSERROR while executing code using playback

Hi Narayan

While I am executing following code in controller it runs without throwing any exception and gives proper output

 var $parser = new DOMParser()
$xAxisName =  $parser.parseFromString(eval("DIGITE.App.Dashboard.instance.charts[10001].chartData.data").toString(),"text/xml").getElementsByTagName("graph")[0].getAttribute("xAxisName");
        _alert($xAxisName);

but while executing same code using playback, its throw an error
"JSERROR
ReferenceError: "DOMParser" is not defined. "

Sahi version V2
Firfox version "3.6.8'
OS windows 2000

Hi Ashwini,

You are right about DOMParser being available only on the browser, and hence why Ganesh's code did not work. But unfortunately you can use _set only for objects which can be serialized to JSON objects (some objects may fail to be serialized).

A better way to do this would be to get the xml string using _set, and then use new XML() to parse the xml.

var $data;
_set($data, DIGITE.App.Dashboard.instance.charts[10001].chartData.data.toString());
_alert($data);
var $dom = new XML($data);
_alert($dom.descendents("graph")[0].xAxisName);

Accessing elements is different from DOM parser, and is defined by E4X. (Google E4X for more details and have a look at this post: http://blog.sahi.co.in/2009/06/parsing-xml-in-sahi-scripts.html)

Hi Ashwini,

Don't use XML object in the browser tag. Use it as I have specified in my post. XML is not available on the browser.

I have rectified the blog link. Thanks for pointing out.

That is surprising! Are you both using the same version of Sahi? XML is available in Rhino which is bundled with Sahi. You should not need anything extra. We can set up a desktop sharing session to see what is happening. Drop a mail to support@sahi.co.in and we will send you details.
