Properties
| attributes | Contains the list of attributes for this node. Read-only. |
| baseName* | Returns the base name for the name qualified with the namespace. Read-only. |
| childNodes | Contains a node list containing the children nodes. Read-only. |
| dataType* | Specifies the data type for this node. Read/write. |
| definition* | Returns the definition of the node in the document type definition (DTD) or schema. Read-only. |
| firstChild | Contains the first child of the node. Read-only. |
| lastChild | Returns the last child node. Read-only. |
| name | Contains the attribute name. Read-only. |
| namespaceURI* | Returns the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) for the namespace. Read-only. |
| nextSibling | Contains the next sibling of this node in the parent's child list. Read-only. |
| nodeName | Contains the qualified name of the element, attribute, or entity reference, or a fixed string for other node types. Read-only. |
| nodeType | Specifies the XML Document Object Model (DOM) node type, which determines valid values and whether the node can have child nodes. Read-only. |
| nodeTypedValue* | Contains the node value expressed in its defined data type. Read/write. |
| nodeTypeString* | Returns the node type in string form. Read-only. |
| nodeValue | Contains the text associated with the node. Read/write. |
| ownerDocument | Returns the root of the document that contains the node. Read-only. |
| parentNode | Contains the parent node. Read-only. |
| parsed* | Indicates the parsed status of the node and child nodes. Read-only. |
| prefix* | Returns the namespace prefix. Read-only. |
| previousSibling | Contains the previous sibling of this node in the parent's child list. Read-only. |
| specified | Indicates whether the node (usually an attribute) is explicitly specified or derived from a default value in the document type definition (DTD) or schema. Read-only. |
| text | Represents the text content of the node or the concatenated text representing the node and its descendants. Read/write. |

* Denotes an extension to the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) DOM.
Methods
| appendChild | Appends new child node as the last child of this node. |
| cloneNode | Clones a new node. |
| hasChildNodes | Provides a fast way to determine whether a node has children. |
| insertBefore | Inserts a child node to the left of the specified node or at the end of the list. |
| removeChild | Removes the specified child node from the list of children and returns it. |
| replaceChild | Replaces the specified old child node with the supplied new child node. |
| selectNodes | Applies the specified pattern-matching operation to this node's context and returns the list of matching nodes as IXMLDOMNodeList. |
| selectSingleNode | Applies the specified pattern-matching operation to this node's context and returns the first matching node. |
| transformNode | Processes this node and its children using the supplied XSL Transformations (XSLT) style sheet and returns the resulting transformation. |
| transformNodeToObject | Processes this node and its children using the supplied XSL Transformations (XSLT) style sheet and returns the resulting transformation in the supplied object. |
Events
