XML::XPath::Node(3pm) User Contributed Perl DocumentationXML::XPath::Node(3pm)

NAME
       XML::XPath::Node - internal representation of a node

API
       The Node API aims to emulate DOM to some extent, however the API isn't
       quite compatible with DOM. This is to ease transition from XML::DOM
       programming to XML::XPath. Compatibility with DOM may arise once
       XML::DOM gets namespace support.

   new
       Creates a new node. See the sub-classes for parameters to pass to
       new().

   getNodeType
       Returns one of ELEMENT_NODE, TEXT_NODE, COMMENT_NODE, ATTRIBUTE_NODE,
       PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION_NODE or NAMESPACE_NODE. UNKNOWN_NODE is returned
       if the sub-class doesn't implement getNodeType - but that means
       something is broken! The constants are exported by default from
       XML::XPath::Node. The constants have the same numeric value as the
       XML::DOM versions.

   getParentNode
       Returns the parent of this node, or undef if this is the root node.
       Note that the root node is the root node in terms of XPath - not the
       root element node.

   to_sax ( $handler | %handlers )
       Generates sax calls to the handler or handlers. See the PerlSAX docs
       for details (not yet implemented correctly).
