NAME

6       XML::DOM::Text - A piece of XML text in XML::DOM
7

DESCRIPTION

9       XML::DOM::Text extends XML::DOM::CharacterData, which extends
10       XML::DOM::Node.
11
12       The Text interface represents the textual content (termed character
13       data in XML) of an Element or Attr. If there is no markup inside an
14       element's content, the text is contained in a single object
15       implementing the Text interface that is the only child of the element.
16       If there is markup, it is parsed into a list of elements and Text nodes
17       that form the list of children of the element.
18
19       When a document is first made available via the DOM, there is only one
20       Text node for each block of text. Users may create adjacent Text nodes
21       that represent the contents of a given element without any intervening
22       markup, but should be aware that there is no way to represent the
23       separations between these nodes in XML or HTML, so they will not (in
24       general) persist between DOM editing sessions. The normalize() method
25       on Element merges any such adjacent Text objects into a single node for
26       each block of text; this is recommended before employing operations
27       that depend on a particular document structure, such as navigation with
28       XPointers.

30   METHODS
31       splitText (offset)
32           Breaks this Text node into two Text nodes at the specified offset,
33           keeping both in the tree as siblings. This node then only contains
34           all the content up to the offset point. And a new Text node, which
35           is inserted as the next sibling of this node, contains all the
36           content at and after the offset point.
37
38           Parameters:
39            offset  The offset at which to split, starting from 0.
40
41           Return Value: The new Text node.

43           DOMExceptions:
44
45           •   INDEX_SIZE_ERR
46
47               Raised if the specified offset is negative or greater than the
48               number of characters in data.
49
50           •   NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR
51
52               Raised if this node is readonly.
