Detailed Description
By far the vast majority of objects (apart from text) that authors encounter when traversing a document are Element
nodes.
Assume the following XML document: <elementExample id="demo"> <subelement1/> <subelement2><subsubelement/></subelement2> </elementExample>
When represented using DOM, the top node is an Element
node for "elementExample", which contains two child Element
nodes, one for "subelement1" and one for "subelement2". "subelement1" contains no child nodes.
Elements may have attributes associated with them; since the Element
interface inherits from Node
, the generic Node
interface method getAttributes
may be used to retrieve the set of all attributes for an element. There are methods on the Element
interface to retrieve either an Attr
object by name or an attribute value by name. In XML, where an attribute value may contain entity references, an Attr
object should be retrieved to examine the possibly fairly complex sub-tree representing the attribute value. On the other hand, in HTML, where all attributes have simple string values, methods to directly access an attribute value can safely be used as a convenience.

- Returns
- Exceptions
-
DOMException NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
Definition at line 167 of file dom_element.cpp.
Removes the specified attribute.
- Parameters
-
oldAttr The Attr
node to remove from the attribute list. If the removedAttr
has a default value it is immediately replaced.
- Returns
- The
Attr
node that was removed.
- Exceptions
-
DOMException NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
NOT_FOUND_ERR: Raised if oldAttr
is not an attribute of the element.
Definition at line 200 of file dom_element.cpp.
Introduced in DOM Level 2.
Removes an attribute by local name and namespace URI. If the removed attribute has a default value it is immediately replaced. The replacing attribute has the same namespace URI and local name, as well as the original prefix.
HTML-only DOM implementations do not need to implement this method.
- Parameters
-
namespaceURI The namespace URI of the attribute to remove. localName The local name of the attribute to remove.
- Exceptions
-
DOMException NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
Definition at line 257 of file dom_element.cpp.
Adds a new attribute.
If an attribute with that name is already present in the element, its value is changed to be that of the value parameter. This value is a simple string, it is not parsed as it is being set. So any markup (such as syntax to be recognized as an entity reference) is treated as literal text, and needs to be appropriately escaped by the implementation when it is written out. In order to assign an attribute value that contains entity references, the user must create an Attr
node plus any Text
and EntityReference
nodes, build the appropriate subtree, and use setAttributeNode
to assign it as the value of an attribute.
- Parameters
-
name The name of the attribute to create or alter. value Value to set in string form.
- Returns
- Exceptions
-
DOMException INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: Raised if the specified name contains an invalid character.
NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
Definition at line 158 of file dom_element.cpp.
Adds a new attribute.
If an attribute with that name is already present in the element, it is replaced by the new one.
- Parameters
-
newAttr The Attr
node to add to the attribute list.
- Returns
- If the
newAttr
attribute replaces an existing attribute with the same name, the previously existingAttr
node is returned, otherwisenull
is returned.
- Exceptions
-
DOMException WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR: Raised if newAttr
was created from a different document than the one that created the element.
NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
INUSE_ATTRIBUTE_ERR: Raised if newAttr
is already an attribute of another Element
object. The DOM user must explicitly clone Attr
nodes to re-use them in other elements.
Definition at line 186 of file dom_element.cpp.
Introduced in DOM Level 2.
Adds a new attribute. If an attribute with that local name and that namespace URI is already present in the element, it is replaced by the new one.
HTML-only DOM implementations do not need to implement this method.
- Parameters
-
newAttr The Attr node to add to the attribute list.
- Returns
- If the newAttr attribute replaces an existing attribute with the same local name and namespace URI, the replaced Attr node is returned, otherwise null is returned.
- Exceptions
-
DOMException WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR: Raised if newAttr was created from a different document than the one that created the element.
NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
INUSE_ATTRIBUTE_ERR: Raised if newAttr is already an attribute of another Element object. The DOM user must explicitly clone Attr nodes to re-use them in other elements.
Definition at line 280 of file dom_element.cpp.
void Element::setAttributeNS | ( | const DOMString & | namespaceURI, |
const DOMString & | qualifiedName, | ||
const DOMString & | value | ||
) |
Introduced in DOM Level 2.
Adds a new attribute. If an attribute with the same local name and namespace URI is already present on the element, its prefix is changed to be the prefix part of the qualifiedName, and its value is changed to be the value parameter. This value is a simple string; it is not parsed as it is being set. So any markup (such as syntax to be recognized as an entity reference) is treated as literal text, and needs to be appropriately escaped by the implementation when it is written out. In order to assign an attribute value that contains entity references, the user must create an Attr node plus any Text and EntityReference nodes, build the appropriate subtree, and use setAttributeNodeNS or setAttributeNode to assign it as the value of an attribute.
HTML-only DOM implementations do not need to implement this method.
- Parameters
-
namespaceURI The namespace URI of the attribute to create or alter. qualifiedName The qualified name of the attribute to create or alter. value The value to set in string form.
- Exceptions
-
DOMException INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: Raised if the specified qualified name contains an illegal character.
NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
NAMESPACE_ERR: Raised if the qualifiedName is malformed, if the qualifiedName has a prefix and the namespaceURI is null, if the qualifiedName has a prefix that is "xml" and the namespaceURI is different from "http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace", or if the qualifiedName is "xmlns" and the namespaceURI is different from "http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/".

void DOM::Element::setContentEditable | ( | bool | enabled | ) |
not part of the official DOM
This element can be made editable by setting its contentEditable property to true
. The setting will be inherited to its children as well.
Setting or clearing contentEditable when design mode is active will take no effect. However, its status will still be propagated to all child elements.
- Parameters
-
enabled true
to make this element editable,false
otherwise.

Definition at line 321 of file dom_element.cpp.
DOMString Element::tagName | ( | ) | const |
The name of the element.
For example, in: <elementExample id="demo"> ... </elementExample> , tagName
has the value "elementExample"
. Note that this is case-preserving in XML, as are all of the operations of the DOM. The HTML DOM returns the tagName
of an HTML element in the canonical uppercase form, regardless of the case in the source HTML document.
