IXMLDOMElement::removeAttribute Method

Removes or replaces the named attribute.

Visual Basic Syntax

oXMLDOMElement.removeAttribute(name)

C/C++ Syntax

HRESULT removeAttribute(
    BSTR name);

Parameters

name
[in] Name of the attribute to be removed or replaced.

C/C++ Return Values

S_OK
Value returned if successful.
S_FALSE
Value when returning null. 
E_FAIL
Value returned if an error occurs.

Remarks

If the specified attribute has a default value, this is equivalent to a replace operation: the current value is removed and a new attribute is created with the default value. This operation also resets the IXMLDOMNode interface's specified property.
