'ActiveXObject' is not defined no-undef [React-Js]












1















I am trying to parse XML Response un ReactJs.



var parser, xmlDoc;
var text = "<bookstore><book>" +
"<title>Everyday Italian</title>" +
"<author>Giada De Laurentiis</author>" +
"<year>2005</year>" +
"</book></bookstore>";

if (window.DOMParser) {
// code for modern browsers
parser = new DOMParser();
xmlDoc = parser.parseFromString(text,"text/xml");
} else {
// code for old IE browsers
xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
xmlDoc.async = false;
xmlDoc.loadXML(text);
}


Above code works fine in React if i remove else part , but project requirement is to support >=IE7 browsers using ReactJs. Also above code is working good if i embed JS into simple HTML page. Please let me know if i am missing something.

  • So define it as a global on the page.

  • Not the complete answer you're looking for since I'm not familiar with old browser support but you should make your else an else if and also check for the existence of ActiveXObject (like you did with DOMParser) before using it. This will at least get rid of your error.

So use window.ActiveXObject instead of just ActiveXObject to get around the global. I assume your linter is set up to allow window.



or set up your linter to allow it



"eslintConfig": {
"globals": {
"window": true,
"ActiveXObject": true
}
}


or set it on the page



/* global ActiveXObject */
