String XmlDocumentType.textContent;

member function

hasChildNodes

Query whether there are child nodes

1
Boolean XmlDocumentType.hasChildNodes();

Return results:

• Boolean, returns true if there are any child nodes, otherwise returns false

---

normalize

Merge adjacent Text nodes and delete empty Text nodes

1
XmlDocumentType.normalize();

This method will traverse all descendant nodes of the current node and normalize the document by deleting empty Text nodes and merging all adjacent Text nodes. This method is useful for simplifying the structure of the document tree after inserting or deleting nodes.

---

cloneNode

Creates an exact copy of the specified node

1
XmlNode XmlDocumentType.cloneNode(Boolean deep = true);

Call parameters:

• deep: Boolean, whether to deep copy, when true, the cloned node will clone all child nodes of the original node

Return results:

• XmlNode, returns the copied node

This method will copy and return a copy of the node on which it was called. If the argument passed to it is true, it will also recursively copy all descendant nodes of the current node. Otherwise, it only copies the current node. The returned node does not belong to the document tree and its parentNode property is null. When an Element node is copied, all its properties will be copied.

---

lookupPrefix

Returns the prefix matching the specified namespace URI on the current node

1
String XmlDocumentType.lookupPrefix(String namespaceURI);

Call parameters:

• namespaceURI: String, specifies the matching namespace URI

Return results:

• String, returns the matching prefix, returns null if not matched.

---

lookupNamespaceURI

Returns the namespace URI matching the specified prefix on the current node

1
String XmlDocumentType.lookupNamespaceURI(String prefix);

Call parameters:

• prefix: String, specifies the matching prefix

Return results:

• String, returns the matching namespace URI, returns null if not matched.

---

insertBefore

Insert a new child node before an existing child node

1
2
XmlNode XmlDocumentType.insertBefore(XmlNode newChild,
    XmlNode refChild);

Call parameters:

• newChild:XmlNode, insert new node
• refChild:XmlNode, insert a new node before this node

Return results:

• XmlNode, returns the new child node

If newChild already exists in the document tree, it will be removed from the document tree and reinserted in its new position. Nodes from one document (or nodes created by one document) cannot be inserted into another document. That is, the ownerDocument attribute of newChild must be the same as the ownerDocument attribute of the current node.

---

insertAfter

Insert a new child node after an existing child node

1
2
XmlNode XmlDocumentType.insertAfter(XmlNode newChild,
    XmlNode refChild);

Call parameters:

• newChild:XmlNode, insert new node
• refChild:XmlNode, insert a new node after this node

Return results:

• XmlNode, returns the new child node

If newChild already exists in the document tree, it will be removed from the document tree and reinserted in its new position. Nodes from one document (or nodes created by one document) cannot be inserted into another document. That is, the ownerDocument attribute of newChild must be the same as the ownerDocument attribute of the current node.

---

appendChild

Adds a new child node to the end of a node's child node list

1
XmlNode XmlDocumentType.appendChild(XmlNode newChild);

Call parameters:

• newChild:XmlNode, specify the added node

Return results:

• XmlNode, returns this new child node

If newChild already exists in the document tree, it will be removed from the document tree and reinserted in its new position. Nodes from one document (or nodes created by one document) cannot be inserted into another document. That is, the ownerDocument attribute of newChild must be the same as the ownerDocument attribute of the current node.

• oldChild:XmlNode, specifies the node to be replaced

Return results:

• XmlNode, If the replacement is successful, this method can return the replaced node. If the replacement fails, it returns null.

If newChild already exists in the document tree, it will be removed from the document tree and reinserted in its new position. Nodes from one document (or nodes created by one document) cannot be inserted into another document. That is, the ownerDocument attribute of newChild must be the same as the ownerDocument attribute of the current node.

---

removeChild

Remove a node from the list of child nodes

1
XmlNode XmlDocumentType.removeChild(XmlNode oldChild);

Call parameters:

• oldChild:XmlNode, specifies the node to be deleted

Return results:

• XmlNode, If the deletion is successful, this method can return the deleted node. If it fails, it returns null.
