text Property

Contains the text content of the node and its subtrees.

Syntax

strValue = oXMLDOMNode.text
objXMLDOMNode.text = strValue

Remarks

String. The property is read/write. Returns the string representing the text content of this node and its descendants.

This value depends on the value of the nodeType property:

NODE_ATTRIBUTE , NODE_DOCUMENT , NODE_ENTITY	Returns a string representing the value of the node. This is the concatenated text of all subnodes with entities expanded.
NODE_CDATA_SECTION , NODE_COMMENT , NODE_PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION , NODE_TEXT	Returns the text contained in the node, which is the same as the nodeValue property.
NODE_DOCUMENT_TYPE , NODE_NOTATION	Returns the empty string (""). These node types do not have associated text.
NODE_DOCUMENT_FRAGMENT	Returns the text comprised of the concatenation of all descendant nodes.
NODE_ELEMENT	Contains a string that represents the element content. Note that this will also include the text content from all child elements, concatenated in document order. For example, consider the following XML: <count> <item>one</item> <item>two</item> <item>three</item> <item>four</item> </count> The text property for the "count" element contains the value "one two three four".
NODE_ENTITY_REFERENCE	Returns the string representation of the entity reference.
