XML DOM - Attribute Object


Hello folks! welcome back to a new section of our tutorial on XML DOM. In this tutorial, we are going to be studying about the XML DOM Attribute Object.

The Attribute Object represents an attribute in an Element Object. The allowable values for attributes are usually difined in a DTD.

Because the Attribute object is also a Node, it inherits the Node object's properties and methods. However Attribute objects are not regarded as part of the document tree since they are not child nodes of the element they describe, and will return null for many of the Node properties.
