The Text
interface represents a text node
in a DOM tree.
To understand what a text node is, consider the following document:
<html lang="en" class="e">
<head>
<title>Aliens?</title>
</head>
<body>
Why yes.
</body>
</html>
In that document, there are five text nodes, with the following contents:
"\n "
(after the <head>
start tag, a newline followed by four spaces)"Aliens?"
(the contents of the title
element)"\n "
(after the </head>
end tag, a newline followed by two spaces)"\n "
(after the <body>
start tag, a newline followed by two spaces)"\n Why yes.\n \n\n"
(the contents of the body
element)Each of those text nodes is an object that has the properties and methods documented in this article.
