[Former Member]

e.g,:

wdContext.current<b>Deal</b>Element().setAttributeValue("<i>deal_id</i>","<i>aaaaaaa</i>");

above code can get the result i wanna.

but now i wanna in terms of its node'name to set attribute vaue of itself. in other words,i have no idea about how to get the current node element by its name"<b>Deal</b>".

Hi Wing,

The answer is there in your question itself.

wdContext.currentDealElement()

will give you the current node element by its name"Deal" or you could use

wdContext.nodeDeal().getCurrentElement()

or you could use

wdContext.nodeDeal().getElementAt(wdContext.nodeDeal().getLeadSelection())

hi,

I am little unclear about the question, but i guess this is what you are alooking for

IWDNode nodeObj = wdContext.getChildNode("Deal",0);

in above stmt , it will get you the the node Deal from the root contexts 0th element.

then you can retrieve its element as,

IWDNodeElement nodeEle = nodeObj.getElementAt(<index>); //will get you the element at location index

let me know if you are in doubt

hope it helps
