The Text interface represents the textual content of Element or Attr. If an element has no markup within its content, it has a single child implementing Text that contains the element's text. However, if the element contains markup, it is parsed into information items and Text nodes that form its children.
New documents have a single Text node for each block of text. Over time, more Text nodes may be created as the document's content changes. The Node.normalize() method merges adjacent Text objects back into a single node for each block of text.
Constructor
Text()- Returns a
Textnode with the parameter as its textual content.
Properties
Text.isElementContentWhitespaceRead only-
Returns a
Booleanflag indicating whether or not the text node contains only whitespace. Text.wholeTextRead only- Returns a
DOMStringcontaining the text of allTextnodes logically adjacent to thisNode, concatenated in document order. Text.assignedSlotRead only- Returns the
HTMLSlotElementobject associated with the element.
Methods
Text.replaceWholeText- Replaces the text of the current node and all logically adjacent nodes with the specified text.
Text.splitText- Breaks the node into two nodes at a specified offset.
