nodeValue Property

Contains the text associated with the node.

Syntax

objValue = oDOMNode.nodeValue
objDOMNode.nodeValue = objValue

Remarks

Variant. The property is read/write. This value depends on the value of the nodeType property:

NODE_ATTRIBUTE

Contains a string representing the value of the attribute. For attributes with subnodes, this is the concatenated text of all subnodes with entities expanded. Setting this value deletes all children of the node and replaces them with a single text node containing the value written.

NODE_CDATA_SECTION

Contains a string representing the text stored in the CDATA section.

NODE_COMMENT

Contains the content of the comment, exclusive of the comment begin and end sequence.

NODE_DOCUMENT, NODE_DOCUMENT_TYPE, NODE_DOCUMENT_FRAGMENT, NODE_ELEMENT, NODE_ENTITY, NODE_ENTITY_REFERENCE, NODE_NOTATION

Contains null. Note that attempting to set the value of nodes of these types generates an error.

NODE_PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION

Contains the content of the processing instruction, excluding the target. (The target appears in the nodeName property.)

NODE_TEXT

Contains a string representing the text stored in the text node.
