IHTMLEventObj2::getAttribute Method

Retrieves the value of the given attribute.

Syntax

HRESULT getAttribute( 
    BSTR strAttributeName, 
    LONG fFlags, 
    VARIANT *AttributeValue 
);

Parameters

strAttributeName

String that specifies the name of the attribute to retrieve.

fFlags

Long integer that receives the flags.

AttributeValue

Address of a variable that receives a string, number, or Boolean value as defined by the attribute. If the attribute is not present, this method returns NULL.

Return Value

Returns S_OK if successful, or an error code otherwise.

Remarks

If two or more attributes have the same name—differing only in uppercase and lowercase letters—and fCaseSensitive is false, this method removes only the last attribute to be created with this name. All other attributes of the same name are ignored.

This method is used only by events created from HTML Components.
