All Known Subinterfaces:

DomElement

@JsType(isNative=true)
public interface DomNode

Node that has all methods from Node API that have been overridden in Polymer DOM module.

No instances of this class should be created directly, but instead DomApi.wrap(elemental.dom.Node) should be used

Method Detail

getChildNodes

@JsProperty
JsArray<elemental.dom.Node> getChildNodes()

Returns the childNodes property.

NOTE: returns an array since that is what the Polymer.dom API does, and luckily native NodeList items can be accessed array like with list[index].

This means that only JsArray.get(int) and JsArray.length() methods can be used from the returned "array".

Returns:

the child nodes

getFirstChild

@JsProperty
elemental.dom.Node getFirstChild()

Returns the firstChild property.

Returns:

the first child

getLastChild

@JsProperty
elemental.dom.Node getLastChild()

Returns the lastChild property.

Returns:

the last child

getNextSibling

@JsProperty
elemental.dom.Node getNextSibling()

Returns the nextSibling property.

Returns:

the next sibling

getPreviousSibling

@JsProperty
elemental.dom.Node getPreviousSibling()

Returns the previousSibling property.

Returns:

the previous sibling

getTextContent

@JsProperty
String getTextContent()

Returns the textContent property.

Returns:

the text content

setTextContent

@JsProperty
void setTextContent(String textContent)

A setter for the childNodes property.

Parameters:

textContent - the text content to set

appendChild

void appendChild(elemental.dom.Node node)

Insert a node as the last child node of this element.

Parameters:

node - the node to append

insertBefore

void insertBefore(elemental.dom.Node newChild,
                  elemental.dom.Node refChild)

Inserts the first Node given in a parameter immediately before the second, child of this element, Node.

Parameters:

newChild - the node to be inserted

refChild - the node before which newChild is inserted

removeChild

void removeChild(elemental.dom.Node childNode)

Removes a child node from the current node, which much be a child of the current node.

Parameters:

childNode - the child node to remove

replaceChild

void replaceChild(elemental.dom.Node newChild,
                  elemental.dom.Node oldChild)

Replaces one child Node of the current one with the second one given in parameter.

Parameters:

newChild - the new node to replace the oldChild. If it already exists in the DOM, it is first removed.

oldChild - is the existing child to be replaced.

cloneNode

elemental.dom.Node cloneNode(boolean deep)

Clone a Node, and optionally, all of its contents. By default, it clones the content of the node.

Parameters:

deep - true if the children of the node should also be cloned, or false to clone only the specified node.

Returns:

a clone of this node

getParentNode

@JsProperty
elemental.dom.Node getParentNode()

Gets the parent node of this node.

Returns:

the parent node, not null if this node has no parent.

isSameNode

boolean isSameNode(elemental.dom.Node node)

The isSameNode() method for Node objects is a legacy alias the for the === strict equality operator. That is, it tests whether two nodes are the same (in other words, whether they reference the same object).

Parameters:

node - the node to test

Returns:

whether the nodes are the same
