Summary

Sent to the current card when the revXMLCreateTree or revXMLCreateTreeFromFile function encounters data between tags while parsing an XML document.

Syntax

revStartXMLData <pElementData>

Description

Handle the revStartXMLData message if you want to build your own subset of an XML document.

The revXMLCreateTree or revXMLCreateTreeFromFile functions take XML data and parse it. When you call either of these functions, you can specify whether or not to send messages during the parsing operation.

If you have specified that you want the function to send messages, the revStartXMLData message is sent when the function encounters element data. If you have specified that you don't want messages sent, no revStartXMLData messages are sent.

Parameters

pElementData		The text of the XML element currently being parsed.
