Get the CDATA content Count

[MonishaRajendran]

Hi Everyone,

It would be helpful for me to get a count of the CDATA content in the XML file. For your convenience, I have attached the script I used to get the CDATA and InDesign content. 

var allCDATA = [];  
myXMl = app.activeDocument.xmlElements[0];
var myXmlNode = myXMl.evaluateXPathExpression("//Root");
var myFrame =  app.activeDocument.textFrames;
        app.findChangeGrepOptions = NothingEnum.nothing;
        app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;
 for (var i = 0; i<myFrame.length; i++) {
       
        var mySelectedXMLItem = myFrame[i].associatedXMLElement;
        if(mySelectedXMLItem != null && mySelectedXMLItem.markupTag.name != null)
        {
         var node_TBGUID = myFrame[i].associatedXMLElement.xmlAttributes.itemByName("TBGUID").value;
        var myFrames = myFrame[i].texts[0].contents; 
        var xmlTree = GetXMLFile();
         var content = new XML(xmlTree);
        var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
        myLinks = myDoc.links;
    for (j = myLinks.length - 1; j >= 0; j--)
    {  
        myName = myLinks[j].filePath;
        var ext =  myName.substring(myName.length-3,myName.length) ;
        if (ext=="xml")
        {  
            var myXMLFile = File(myName);  
            var myResult = myXMLFile.open("r", undefined, undefined);
            if(myResult == true){ 
                var myXMLDefaults = myXMLFile.read(); 
                myXMLFile.close(); 

            } // if(myResult)
        } // if(ext)
    } // for
var elements =getAllAttributeValues ("TBGUID");
//alert(elements)
for(var k =  0;k<elements.length;k++)
{
        if(elements[k] == node_TBGUID)
        {
            var getxmlcontent = getCDATAWithID(myXMLFile, "TBGUID", elements[k]); // Get the CDATA values
            var testL=myFrames;
            alert(testL)
            var testR=getxmlcontent.toString().replace("<br />","").replace("<br />","").replace("<br />","");
            alert(testR)
       } ///// elements[k] == node_TBGUID
} //// for (k)
}
    }  // first for loop

function GetXMLFile()
{
	
		myDoc = app.activeDocument;
		myLinks = myDoc.links;
		for (j = myLinks.length - 1; j >= 0; j--)
		{  
			myName = myLinks[j].filePath; 
			var ext =  myName.substring(myName.length-3,myName.length) ;
			if (ext=="xml")
			{   
				var myXMLFile = File(myName);  
				var myResult = myXMLFile.open("r"); 
				if(myResult == true)
				{ 
				var myXMLDefaults = myXMLFile.read(); 
				myXMLFile.close(); 
				var myXMLDefaults = new XML(myXMLDefaults); 
				return myXMLDefaults;
				}			
		}//for
	}

function getAllAttributeValues(attributeName){
    var allAttributes = [];
    var allNodes = content[0].xpath("//*[@"+attributeName+"]");
    for(var i = 0; i < allNodes.length(); i++){
        allAttributes.push(allNodes[i].attribute(attributeName).toString());
        }
    if(allAttributes.length > 0){
      //  alert(allAttributes)
      //  getChildData(allAttributes)
        return allAttributes;
        
        }
    else{
        return null;
        }
    }

function getChildData(nodeData){
    for(var c = 0; c < nodeData.children().length(); c++){
        if(nodeData.children()[c].toXMLString().toString().indexOf("<![CDATA[") == 0){
     //  alert(nodeData.children()[c].toString());
            allCDATA.push(nodeData.children()[c].toString());
            }
        if(nodeData.children()[c].children().length() > 0){
            getChildData(nodeData.children()[c]);

        for(var n = 0; n < elements.length(); n++){
            if(elements[n].parent()["@"+attribute].toString() == id){
                CDATA.push(elements[n].toString());
           //    alert(CDATA)
                }
            }
        }
    return CDATA;
    }
