The Node.compareDocumentPosition() method compares the position of the current node against another node in any other document.
The return value is a bitmask with the following values:
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
DOCUMENT_POSITION_DISCONNECTED |
1 |
DOCUMENT_POSITION_PRECEDING |
2 |
DOCUMENT_POSITION_FOLLOWING |
4 |
DOCUMENT_POSITION_CONTAINS |
8 |
DOCUMENT_POSITION_CONTAINED_BY |
16 |
DOCUMENT_POSITION_IMPLEMENTATION_SPECIFIC |
32 |
Syntax
node.compareDocumentPosition( otherNode )
Example
var head = document.getElementsByTagName('head').item(0);
if (head.compareDocumentPosition(document.body) & Node.DOCUMENT_POSITION_FOLLOWING) {
console.log("well-formed document");
} else {
console.log("<head> is not before <body>");
}
Note: Because the result returned by compareDocumentPosition is a bitmask, the bitwise and operator has to be used for meaningful results.
Note: First statement uses NodeList method item(0), which is equivalent to getElementsByTagName('head')[0].
