XMLDOMNode Object

The XMLDOMNode object is the principal object within the Document Object Model
(DOM). Elements, attributes, comments, processing instructions, and every other
document component can be represented as an XMLDOMNode object. The
DOMDocument Object is itself an XMLDOMNode object, as are the members of node
lists and named node maps.
Table 5-2
specifies the common properties of XMLDOMNode and other DOM objects.
XMLDOMImplementation Object
Provides methods that are independent of any
particular instance of the document object model.
XMLDOMNotation Object

definition (DTD) file or XML schema.
XMLDOMProcessingInstruction

interpreted as markup language.
XMLDOMComment Object
Represents the content of an XML comment.
XMLDOMText Object
Represents the text content of an element or attribute.
