System.Xml.XmlNodeReader.MoveToElement Method

Moves to the element that contains the current attribute node.

Syntax

public override bool MoveToElement ()

Returns

true if the reader is positioned on an attribute (the reader moves to the element that owns the attribute); false if the reader is not positioned on an attribute (the position of the reader does not change).

Remarks

Note:

In the dnprdnext, the recommended practice is to create System.Xml.XmlReader instances using the System.Xml.XmlReaderSettings class and the erload:System.Xml.XmlReader.Create method. This allows you to take full advantage of all the new features introduced in the dnprdnshort. For more information, see Creating XML Readers.

Use this method to return to an element after navigating through its attributes. This method moves the reader to one of the following node types: Element, DocumentType, or XmlDeclaration.
