LOCATOR-COLUMN-NUMBER Attribute

The current column in the XML source.

Data Type: INTEGER

Access: Readable

Applies To: SAX-READER Object

Valid only in a callback. Use the SELF handle to get it, as in the following fragment:

myColNum = SELF:LOCATOR-COLUMN-NUMBER. 

Gives the column number where the text that caused the current callback ends. The first column in a line is 1.

If the current location is an external entity — that is, external to the main XML source — the column number is relative to the beginning of the line in the external entity.
