A set of DOM manipulation functions.

Introduction

When working with DOM objects, these additional functions can come in extremely handy. Their relationship to each other is loose and they are basically a catch-all for functions not found elsewhere.

Usage

createDocument

Cross-browser implementation of creating an XML document object.

var foo:DOMDocument = dojox.data.dom.createDocument(str:String?, mimetype:String?);

innerXML

Serialize an XML document to a string.

var foo:String = dojox.data.dom.innerXML(node:Node);

removeChildren

Removes all children from node and returns the count of children removed. The children nodes are not destroyed.

var foo:Integer = dojox.data.dom.removeChildren(node:Element);

replaceChildren

Removes all children of node and appends newChild. All the existing children will be destroyed.

var foo = dojox.data.dom.replaceChildren(node:Element, newChildren:Node|Array);

textContent

Implementation of the DOM Level 3 attribute; scan node for text. This function can also update the text of a node by replacing all child content of the node.

var foo:String|empty string = dojox.data.dom.textContent(node:Node, text:String?);
