Example

As it applies to the NavigationNodes collection.

The following example demonstrates returning a value by indexing an item in the collection. This example returns the label for the first navigation node in the navigation structure of the active Web.

Note  You access the NavigationNodes collection through the Children property of the RootNavigationNode property of the active Web.

Private Sub GetNavigationNode()
     Dim myWeb As WebEx
     Dim myNavNodes As NavigationNodes
     Dim myNavNodeLabel As String

     Set myWeb = ActiveWeb

     myNavNodeLabel = myWeb.RootNavigationNode _
         .Children.Item(0).Label End Sub

As it applies to the MetaTags object.

The following statement returns the contents of a META tag that exists on a Web page in the active Web, and demonstrates the PropertyKey argument.

myMetaTagContents = ActiveWeb.RootFolder.Files _
    .Item(0).MetaTags.Item("generator")

It isn't always necessary to specify the index or property name of the Item property when returning values from a collection. The following example returns a list of file names of each Web page that contains a META tag name equivalent to "generator" in the active Web, without specifying the Item property. FindGeneratorTags retrieves a list of the files that contain the "generator" META tag and adds value of the Item property to the variable myMetaTag, because in this case the value of the Item property is the same as the file name. This is different from the previous example, which returned the contents of the "generator" META tag.

Function FindGeneratorTags() As String

    Dim myWeb As WebEx
    Dim myMetaTags As MetaTags
    Dim myMetaTag As Variant
    Dim myFiles As WebFiles
    Dim myFile As WebFile
    Dim myMetaTagName As String
    Dim myReturnFileName As String

    Set myWeb = ActiveWeb
    Set myFiles = myWeb.RootFolder.Files

    With myWeb
        For Each myFile In myFiles
            Set myMetaTags = myFile.MetaTags
                For Each myMetaTag In myMetaTags
                    myMetaTagName = myMetaTag
                    If myMetaTagName = "generator" Then
                        myReturnFileName = myReturnFileName & myFile.Name
                    End If
                Next
        Next
    End With
    FindGeneratorTags = myReturnFileName
End Function
