public interface Node

extends javax.xml.transform.SourceLocator

represents a Node in an XML document

Field Summary

Method Summary

int	compareTo(Node node) also compares document order
Node	getAttribute(Name name) does this only work on Elements?
SafeNodeIterator	getAttributes() does this only work on Elements?
java.lang.String	getAttributeValue(Name name) does this only work on Elements?
SafeNodeIterator	getChildren() as the name implies ...
java.lang.String	getData() Returns text for TEXT node; value for attribute node; content for comment node; content after PI for PI node;
Node	getElementWithId(java.lang.String id) finds an Element Node, in the this node's document, with the given ID
SafeNodeIterator	getFollowingSiblings() as the name implies ...
java.lang.String	getGeneratedId() guaranteed to be unique (and repeatable)
int	getLineNumber() if decorated with locator events, this returns the line number in the XML source where this node was found
Name	getName() Returns element type name for element; attribute name for an attribute; target for a PI.
