Notation

Class Overview

This interface represents a notation declared in the DTD. A notation either declares, by name, the format of an unparsed entity (see section 4.7 of the XML 1.0 specification ), or is used for formal declaration of processing instruction targets (see section 2.6 of the XML 1.0 specification ). The nodeName attribute inherited from Node is set to the declared name of the notation.

The DOM Level 1 does not support editing Notation nodes; they are therefore readonly.

A Notation node does not have any parent.

See also the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2 Core Specification.

[Expand] Inherited Methods

From interface org.w3c.dom.Node abstract Node appendChild(Node newChild) Adds the node newChild to the end of the list of children of this node. abstract Node cloneNode(boolean deep) Returns a duplicate of this node, i.e., serves as a generic copy constructor for nodes. abstract NamedNodeMap getAttributes() A NamedNodeMap containing the attributes of this node (if it is an Element) or null otherwise. abstract NodeList getChildNodes() A NodeList that contains all children of this node. abstract Node getFirstChild() The first child of this node. abstract Node getLastChild() The last child of this node. abstract String getLocalName() Returns the local part of the qualified name of this node. abstract String getNamespaceURI() The namespace URI of this node, or null if it is unspecified. abstract Node getNextSibling() The node immediately following this node. abstract String getNodeName() The name of this node, depending on its type; see the table above. abstract short getNodeType() A code representing the type of the underlying object, as defined above. abstract String getNodeValue() Returns the value of this node, depending on its type; see the table above. abstract Document getOwnerDocument() The Document object associated with this node. abstract Node getParentNode() The parent of this node. abstract String getPrefix() Returns the namespace prefix of this node, or null if it is unspecified. abstract Node getPreviousSibling() The node immediately preceding this node. abstract boolean hasAttributes() Returns whether this node (if it is an element) has any attributes. abstract boolean hasChildNodes() Returns whether this node has any children. abstract Node insertBefore(Node newChild, Node refChild) Inserts the node newChild before the existing child node refChild. abstract boolean isSupported(String feature, String version) Tests whether the DOM implementation implements a specific feature and that feature is supported by this node. abstract void normalize() Puts all Text nodes in the full depth of the sub-tree underneath this Node, including attribute nodes, into a "normal" form where only structure (e.g., elements, comments, processing instructions, CDATA sections, and entity references) separates Text nodes, i.e., there are neither adjacent Text nodes nor empty Text nodes. abstract Node removeChild(Node oldChild) Removes the child node indicated by oldChild from the list of children, and returns it. abstract Node replaceChild(Node newChild, Node oldChild) Replaces the child node oldChild with newChild in the list of children, and returns the oldChild node. abstract void setNodeValue(String nodeValue) Sets the value of this node, depending on its type; see the table above. abstract void setPrefix(String prefix) Sets the namespace prefix of this node.
