Insert Data in XML File And Count number of Records(Nodes) in xml file


To count number of nodes from xml file we need to write the code like as shown below


XmlDocument readDoc = new XmlDocument();
readDoc.Load(MapPath("Sample.xml"));
int count = readDoc.SelectNodes("CommentsInformation/Comments").Count;
lblcount.InnerHtml = "Number of Records: "+ count;

If you want to see it in complete example we need to write the code like as shown below


<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<table>
<tr>
<td style="width: 100px">
Name:</td>
<td style="width: 100px">
<asp:TextBox ID="txtName" runat="server"></asp:TextBox></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="width: 100px">
Email:</td>
<td style="width: 100px">
<asp:TextBox ID="txtEmail" runat="server"></asp:TextBox></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td>
<asp:Button ID="btnSubmit" runat="server" OnClick="btnSubmit_Click" Text="Submit" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
<br />
<label id="lblcount" runat="server" />
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>

After that add XML file to your application and give name as "Sample.xml" then add root element in xml file otherwise it will through error. Here I added CommentInformation as root element in XML file.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<CommentsInformation>
 </CommentsInformation>

After that add this namespace in codebehind

C# Code


using System;
using System.Xml;

After that add below code in code behind


protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
protected void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
XmlDocument xmldoc = new XmlDocument();
xmldoc.Load(Server.MapPath("Sample.xml"));
XmlElement parentelement = xmldoc.CreateElement("Comments");
XmlElement name = xmldoc.CreateElement("Name");
name.InnerText = txtName.Text;
XmlElement email = xmldoc.CreateElement("Email");
email.InnerText = txtEmail.Text;
parentelement.AppendChild(name);
parentelement.AppendChild(email);
xmldoc.DocumentElement.AppendChild(parentelement);
xmldoc.Save(Server.MapPath("Sample.xml"));
XmlDocument readDoc = new XmlDocument();
readDoc.Load(MapPath("Sample.xml"));
int count = readDoc.SelectNodes("CommentsInformation/Comments").Count;
lblcount.InnerHtml = "Number of Records: "+ count;
}


Output
