augRefererNode attribute

This property adds additional support for DOMs attached to a fTag.TYPE_XML_TREE type stream which has augmentation enabled.

If this node is within augmentation, this returns the Node which was used as the primary reference for this node. This will usually be the Node in which the augmenation is attached. If created to replace a matching context, this returns the node which matched. Otherwise, this returns itself.

extendedNodeType
Access	read-only
Returns	unsigned short

hasAugmentation attribute

This property adds additional support for DOMs attached to an fTag.TYPE_XML_TREE stream. This returns fxNode.AUGMENTATION_NONE.

hasAugmentation
Access	read-only
Returns	int

namespacesInScope attribute

namespacesInScope
Access	read-only
Returns	fArray

nodeNumber attribute

Returns the id number of the fxCDATASection node in a XML stream.

nodeNumber
Access	read-only
Returns	int

significantWhitespace attribute

3b2 node information ( x3b2NodeInfo) for handling whitespace.

significantWhitespace
Access	read-only
Returns	int

startContent attribute

Returns the content start position of the fxCDATASection node in a XML stream.

startContent
Access	read-only
Returns	int

startPosition attribute

Returns the start position of the fxCDATASection node in a XML stream.

startPosition
Access	read-only
Returns	int

validAttributes attribute

Uses the DTD to return the valid attributes of a fxCDATASection node.

validAttributes
Access	read-only
Returns	String

validContent attribute

Uses the DTD to return the valid content of the fxCDATASection node.

validContent
Access	read-only
Returns	String

withinAugmentation attribute

This property adds additional support for DOMs attached to an fTag.TYPE_XML_TREE stream. This returns true if the current node is within augmenation of an ancestor.

withinAugmentation
Access	read-only
Returns	boolean

augSerialize method

Serialize an augmented node to a string.

augSerializecontentOnlyprettyPrint
Parameters	booleancontentOnly If false (the default), the name and attributes of the node are included in the serialization. If true, the name and attributes of the node are omitted. In both cases, all information from the nodes children is included booleanprettyPrint If true, will format the serialized augmented node. If contentOnly is true, then it will not format the augmented node.
Returns	String. The serialized version of the augmented node.

evaluateXPath method

Evaluates an XPath expression string.

evaluateXPathexpression
Parameters	Stringexpression The XPath expression string to be parsed and evaluated.
Returns	XPathResult. The result of the evaluation of the XPath expression.
Throws	XPathException INVALID_EXPRESSION_ERR: Raised if the expression is not legal according to the rules of the XPathEvaluator.

getNodePath method

Returns an absolute location path for the xmlNode.

getNodePathmode
Parameters	intmode If not specified, or 0, the returned path uses expanded local-name and namespace-uri syntax for elements within namespaces. If 1, the returned path uses the specifed prefix on elements within a namespace. mode 0: /document/chapter[1]/section[5]/node()[ local-name()="title" and namespace-uri()="URN:example:urn" ] mode 1: /document/chapter[1]/section[5]/ex:title
Returns	String. Returns the absolute location path to this xmlNode.

getPage method

getPage
Parameters	None
Returns	fPage

getUserString method

Retrieves the string associated to a key on the xmlNode. The string must first have been set to this node by calling setUserString with the same key.

getUserStringkey
Parameters	Stringkey The key to the associated string.
Returns	String. The userString associated to the given key on this xmlNode, or NULL if there was none.

getXmlBase method

Used to search for the base URI for this xmlNode. It does not return the base URI for the document.

getXmlBase
Parameters	None
Returns	String. Returns the base URI string.

getXmlLang method

The default definition. This function normally searches for the language of the xmlElement node. This can not be set for the base xmlNode - the relevant derived class will redefine this function to set it.

getXmlLang
Parameters	None
Returns	String. In the default definition, returns an empty string.

getXmlSpace method

The default definition. This function normally searches for the space preserving behaviour of an xmlElement. This can not be set for the base xmlNode - the relevant derived classes will redefine this function to set it.

getXmlSpace
Parameters	None
Returns	String. In the default definition, returns -1.

hasNamespacesInScope method

Used to see if this node has a list of namespaces.

hasNamespacesInScope
Parameters	None
Returns	booleantrue if this node has a list of namespaces, false otherwise.

lookupNamespacePrefix method

Returns the URI associated with the prefix passed in. If the prefix is not associated with a namespace, or a prefix is not passed in, the method returns null.

lookupNamespacePrefixprefix
Parameters	Stringprefix The prefix to search for.
Returns	String. Returns the associated namespace URI or null if none is found.

serialize method

Serialize the node to a string.

serializecontentOnlyprettyPrint
Parameters	booleancontentOnly If false (the default), the name and attributes of the node are included in the serialization. If true, the name and attributes of the node are omitted. In both cases, all information from the nodes children is included booleanprettyPrint If true, will format the serialized node. If contentOnly is true, then it will not format the node.
Returns	String. The serialized version of the node.

setUserString method

Used to set the userString for a specific xmlNode.

setUserStringkeydata
Parameters	Stringkey The key to associate the string to. Stringdata The string to associate to the given key, or NULL to remove any existing association to that key
Returns	String. The string previously associated to the given key on this node, or NULL if there was none.
