XML DOM - Entity Object


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

An XML Entity interface represents a known entity, either parsed or unparsed, in an XML document. The nodeName attribute that is inherited from the Node contains the name of the entity.

An Entity object does not have any parent node, and all its successor nodes are read-only.

Entity Object Attributes

The following table lists the attributes of the XML DOM Entity object -
