Link copied to clipboard

node is an element.

Link copied to clipboard

The read-only firstChild property of the Node interface returns the node's first child in the tree, or null if the node has no children.

Link copied to clipboard

Returns the first child that is an element, and null otherwise.

Link copied to clipboard

The read-only isConnected property of the Node interface returns a boolean indicating whether the node is connected (directly or indirectly) to a Document object.

Link copied to clipboard

The read-only lastChild property of the Node interface returns the last child of the node, or null if there are no child nodes.

Link copied to clipboard

Returns the last child that is an element, and null otherwise.

Link copied to clipboard

The read-only nextSibling property of the Node interface returns the node immediately following the specified one in their parent's childNodes, or returns null if the specified node is the last child in the parent element.

Link copied to clipboard

The read-only nodeName property of Node returns the name of the current node as a string.

Link copied to clipboard

The read-only nodeType property of a Node interface is an integer that identifies what the node is. It distinguishes different kinds of nodes from each other, such as elements, text, and comments.

Link copied to clipboard

The nodeValue property of the Node interface returns or sets the value of the current node.

open override val ownerDocument: Document

The read-only ownerDocument property of the Node interface returns the top-level document object of the node.

Link copied to clipboard

The read-only parentElement property of Node interface returns the DOM node's parent Element, or null if the node either has no parent, or its parent isn't a DOM Element. Node.parentNode on the other hand returns any kind of parent, regardless of its type.

Link copied to clipboard

The read-only parentNode property of the Node interface returns the parent of the specified node in the DOM tree.

Link copied to clipboard

The read-only previousSibling property of the Node interface returns the node immediately preceding the specified one in its parent's childNodes list, or null if the specified node is the first in that list.

Link copied to clipboard

node is a ProcessingInstruction node.

Link copied to clipboard

node is a Text node.

Functions

Link copied to clipboard
open fun append(vararg nodes: String)

open fun append(vararg nodes: Node)

Inserts nodes after the last child of node, while replacing strings in nodes with equivalent Text nodes.

Link copied to clipboard
fun <T : Node> appendChild(node: T): T

The appendChild() method of the Node interface adds a node to the end of the list of children of a specified parent node.

Link copied to clipboard
fun cloneNode(subtree: Boolean = definedExternally): Node

The cloneNode() method of the Node interface returns a duplicate of the node on which this method was called. Its parameter controls if the subtree contained in a node is also cloned or not.

Link copied to clipboard

The compareDocumentPosition() method of the Node interface reports the position of its argument node relative to the node on which it is called.

Link copied to clipboard
fun contains(other: Node?): Boolean

The contains() method of the Node interface returns a boolean value indicating whether a node is a descendant of a given node, that is the node itself, one of its direct children (childNodes), one of the children's direct children, and so on.

Link copied to clipboard
open fun dispatchEvent(event: Event): Boolean
Link copied to clipboard
open override fun getElementById(elementId: ElementId): HTMLElement?

The getElementById() method of the DocumentFragment returns an Element object representing the element whose id property matches the specified string. Since element IDs are required to be unique if specified, they're a useful way to get access to a specific element quickly.

Link copied to clipboard
fun getRootNode(options: GetRootNodeOptions = definedExternally): Node

The getRootNode() method of the Node interface returns the context object's root, which optionally includes the shadow root if it is available.

Link copied to clipboard

The hasChildNodes() method of the Node interface returns a boolean value indicating whether the given Node has child nodes or not.

Link copied to clipboard
fun <T : Node> insertBefore(node: T, child: Node?): T

The insertBefore() method of the Node interface inserts a node before a reference node as a child of a specified parent node.

Link copied to clipboard

The isDefaultNamespace() method of the Node interface accepts a namespace URI as an argument. It returns a boolean value that is true if the namespace is the default namespace on the given node and false if not. The default namespace can be retrieved with Node.lookupNamespaceURI() by passing null as the argument.

Link copied to clipboard
fun isEqualNode(otherNode: Node?): Boolean

The isEqualNode() method of the Node interface tests whether two nodes are equal. Two nodes are equal when they have the same type, defining characteristics (for elements, this would be their ID, number of children, and so forth), its attributes match, and so on. The specific set of data points that must match varies depending on the types of the nodes.

Link copied to clipboard
fun isSameNode(otherNode: Node?): Boolean

The isSameNode() method of the Node interface is a legacy alias the for the === strict equality operator. That is, it tests whether two nodes are the same (in other words, whether they reference the same object).

Link copied to clipboard

The lookupNamespaceURI() method of the Node interface takes a prefix as parameter and returns the namespace URI associated with it on the given node if found (and null if not). This method's existence allows Node objects to be passed as a namespace resolver to XPathEvaluator.createExpression() and XPathEvaluator.evaluate().

Link copied to clipboard
fun lookupPrefix(namespace: String?): String?

The lookupPrefix() method of the Node interface returns a string containing the prefix for a given namespace URI, if present, and null if not. When multiple prefixes are possible, the first prefix is returned.

Link copied to clipboard
open fun moveBefore(node: Node, child: Node?)
Link copied to clipboard
fun normalize()

The normalize() method of the Node interface puts the specified node and all of its sub-tree into a normalized form. In a normalized sub-tree, no text nodes in the sub-tree are empty and there are no adjacent text nodes.

Link copied to clipboard
open fun prepend(vararg nodes: String)

open fun prepend(vararg nodes: Node)

Inserts nodes before the first child of node, while replacing strings in nodes with equivalent Text nodes.

Link copied to clipboard
open fun querySelector(selectors: String): Element?

open fun <T : Element> querySelector(selectors: TagName<T>): T?

Returns the first element that is a descendant of node that matches selectors.

Link copied to clipboard
open fun querySelectorAll(selectors: String): NodeList<Element>

open fun <T : Element> querySelectorAll(selectors: TagName<T>): NodeList<T>

Returns all element descendants of node that match selectors.

Link copied to clipboard
fun <T : Node> removeChild(child: T): T

The removeChild() method of the Node interface removes a child node from the DOM and returns the removed node.

Link copied to clipboard
fun <T : Node> replaceChild(node: Node, child: T): T

The replaceChild() method of the Node interface replaces a child node within the given (parent) node.

Link copied to clipboard
open fun replaceChildren()
open fun replaceChildren(vararg nodes: String)

open fun replaceChildren(vararg nodes: Node)

Replace all children of node with nodes, while replacing strings in nodes with equivalent Text nodes.
