Accessing object member in javascript

Question

Hi I know there is plenty information in the web how to access objects in javascript objects. But those examples didn't help with the object in a format returned by the console node = xpath.select("//unit/object[@name='parProgramModeDefault']/@comment",doc);

When printed into the console the object looks like this:

console.log(res);:

How to access nodeName for example? This res.nodeName returns undefined

There's no generic solution and it has nothing to do with the console. You need to look to the documentation of the xpath module you are using, in order to learn how to use its return values. — OrangeDog

In this specific instance, it's returning and you're logging an array, where the first (and only) entry in that array appears to be an object of type Attr. You can access nodeName via res[0].nodeName.
