(JavaScript) Create XAdES using Smart Card or USB Token

Demonstrates how to create an XAdES signed XML document using a certificate located on a smartcard or USB token.

This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.
