Attribute Readonly Description Property Type Readonly Description attributes * AMLNamedNodeMap true A collection containing the attributes of this node (if it is an AMLElement) or null otherwise. baseURI * String true The absolute base URI of this node or null if the implementation wasn't able to obtain an absolute URI. childNodes * AMLNodeList true A NodeList that contains all direct children of this node. firstChild * AMLNode true Retrieves a reference to the first child for the object. lastChild * AMLNode true Retrieves a reference to the last child for the object. localName * String true Retrieves the local name of node. name String true Attribute name. namespaceURI * String true Retrieves the namespace URI. nextSibling * AMLNode true Retrieves a reference to the next child of the parent for the object. nodeName * String true Retrieves the name of a particular type of node. nodeType * Number true Retrieves the type of the requested node. nodeValue * String true Retrieves the value of a node. ownerDocument * AMLDocument true Retrieves the AMLDocument object associated with the node. ownerElement AMLElement true References element that attribute belongs to. parentNode * AMLNode true Retrieves the parent object in the object hierarchy. prefix * String true Retrieves the namespace prefix specifief for the node. previousSibling * AMLNode true Retrieves a reference to the previous child of the parent for the object. specified Boolean true Indicates wether value of the attribute is specified or not. value String true Attribute value. Method Returns Description addEventListener * Void This method allows the registration of an event listener in the default group and, depending on the useCapture parameter, on the capture phase of the DOM event flow or its target and bubbling phases. Sytaxis: object.addEventListener(sType, fListener, bUseCapture) Arguments: Name Type O/R Description sType String Required Specifies the Event.type associated with the event for which the user is registering. fListener Function Required Function to be called when the event occurs. bUseCapture Boolean Required If true, user wishes to add the event listener for the capture phase only, if false - for target and bubbling phases. appendChild * AMLNode Appends a child element to the object. Sytaxis: object.appendChild(oElement) Arguments: Name Type O/R Description oElement AMLNode Required The node to add. canDispatch * Void Tests wether event of the specified namespace and type can be dispatched. Sytaxis: object.canDispatch(sNameSpaceURI, sType) Arguments: Name Type O/R Description sNameSpaceURI String Required NamespaceURI of the event to be tested. sType String Required Event type. cloneNode * AMLNode Creates a copy of node and returns it. Sytaxis: object.cloneNode(bDeep) Arguments: Name Type O/R Description bDeep Boolean Required Indicates wether the childnodes are also to be cloned. compareDocumentPosition * Number Compares the reference node, i.e. the node on which this method is being called, with a node, i.e. the one passed as a parameter, with regard to their position in the document and according to the document order. Sytaxis: object.compareDocumentPosition(oNode) Arguments: Name Type O/R Description oNode AMLNode Required The node to compare against the reference node. dispatchEvent * Boolean This method allows the dispatch of events into the implementation's event model. Return value indicates whether any of the listeners which handled the event called preventDefault method on Event object. Sytaxis: object.dispatchEvent(oEvent) Arguments: Name Type O/R Description oEvent AMLEvent Required The event to be dispatched. hasAttributes * Boolean Retrieves true if the node has any attributes. Sytaxis: object.hasAttributes() hasChildNodes * Boolean Returns a value that indicates whether the object has children. Sytaxis: object.hasChildNodes() insertBefore * AMLNode Inserts a chlid element after the specifyed element to the object. Sytaxis: object.insertBefore(oElement, oBefore) Arguments: Name Type O/R Description oElement AMLNode Required The node to insert. oBefore AMLNode Required The reference node, i.e., the node before which the new node must be inserted. isDefaultNamespace * String This method checks if the specified namespaceURI is the default namespace or not. Sytaxis: object.isDefaultNamespace(sNameSpaceURI) Arguments: Name Type O/R Description sNameSpaceURI String Required The namespace URI to look for. lookupNamespaceURI * String Look up the namespace URI associated to the given prefix, starting from this node. Sytaxis: object.lookupNamespaceURI(sPrefix) Arguments: Name Type O/R Description sPrefix String Required The prefix to look for. If this parameter is null, the method will return the default namespace URI if any. lookupPrefix * String Look up the prefix associated to the given namespace URI, starting from this node. Sytaxis: object.lookupPrefix(sNameSpaceURI) Arguments: Name Type O/R Description sNameSpaceURI String Required The namespace URI to look for. normalize * Void Puts all Text nodes in the full depth of the sub-tree underneath this Node, including attribute nodes, into a "normal" form Sytaxis: object.normalize() removeChild * AMLNode Removes a child node from the object. Sytaxis: object.removeChild(oChild) Arguments: Name Type O/R Description oChild AMLNode Required The node being removed. removeEventListener * Void This method allows the removal of event listeners from the default group. Sytaxis: object.removeEventListener(sType, fListener, bUseCapture) Arguments: Name Type O/R Description sType String Required Specifies the Event.type for which the user registered the event listener. fListener Function Required Listener to be removed. bUseCapture Boolean Required Specifies whether the EventListener being removed was registered for the capture phase or not. replaceChild * AMLNode Replaces the given child node by another node. Sytaxis: object.replaceChild(oNew, oChild) Arguments: Name Type O/R Description oNew AMLNode Required The new node to put in the child list. oChild AMLNode Required The node being replaced in the list. toXML * String Serializes Node to string. Sytaxis: object.toXML() Event B C Interface Description DOMNodeInserted * + - MutationEvent A node has been added as a child of another node or, in case of Attr nodes, has been added to an Element. DOMNodeInsertedIntoDocument * - - MutationEvent A node has been inserted into a document. DOMNodeRemoved * + - MutationEvent A node is being removed from its parent node or, in case of Attr nodes, removed from its ownerElement. DOMNodeRemovedFromDocument * - - MutationEvent A node is being removed from a document. Pseudo-class Description Constant Value Description
