* The <code>Text interface inherits from CharacterData
* and represents the textual content (termed <a href='http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-xml-20040204#syntax'>character data in XML) of an Element
or Attr
. If there is no
* markup inside an element's content, the text is contained in a single
* object implementing the <code>Text interface that is the only
* child of the element. If there is markup, it is parsed into the
* information items (elements, comments, etc.) and <code>Text nodes
* that form the list of children of the element.
* <p>When a document is first made available via the DOM, there is only one
* <code>Text node for each block of text. Users may create adjacent
* <code>Text nodes that represent the contents of a given element
* without any intervening markup, but should be aware that there is no way
* to represent the separations between these nodes in XML or HTML, so they
* will not (in general) persist between DOM editing sessions. The
* <code>Node.normalize() method merges any such adjacent
* <code>Text objects into a single node for each block of text.
* <p> No lexical check is done on the content of a Text
node
* and, depending on its position in the document, some characters must be
* escaped during serialization using character references; e.g. the
* characters "<&" if the textual content is part of an element or of
* an attribute, the character sequence "]]>" when part of an element,
* the quotation mark character " or the apostrophe character ' when part of
* an attribute.
* <p>See also the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Core Specification.
