The DOMCharacterData class

(PHP 5)

Introduction

Represents nodes with character data. No nodes directly correspond to this class, but other nodes do inherit from it.

Class synopsis

DOMCharacterData extends DOMNode {

/* Properties */

public string $data ;

readonly public int $length ;

/* Methods */

void appendData ( string $data )

void deleteData ( int $offset , int $count )

void insertData ( int $offset , string $data )

void replaceData ( int $offset , int $count , string $data )

string substringData ( int $offset , int $count )

/* Inherited methods */

public DOMNode DOMNode::appendChild ( DOMNode $newnode )

public string DOMNode::C14N ([ bool $exclusive [, bool $with_comments [, array $xpath [, array $ns_prefixes ]]]] )

public int DOMNode::C14NFile ( string $uri [, bool $exclusive [, bool $with_comments [, array $xpath [, array $ns_prefixes ]]]] )

public DOMNode DOMNode::cloneNode ([ bool $deep ] )

public int DOMNode::getLineNo ( void )

public string DOMNode::getNodePath ( void )

public bool DOMNode::hasAttributes ( void )

public bool DOMNode::hasChildNodes ( void )

public DOMNode DOMNode::insertBefore ( DOMNode $newnode [, DOMNode $refnode ] )

public bool DOMNode::isDefaultNamespace ( string $namespaceURI )

public bool DOMNode::isSameNode ( DOMNode $node )

public bool DOMNode::isSupported ( string $feature , string $version )

public string DOMNode::lookupNamespaceURI ( string $prefix )

public string DOMNode::lookupPrefix ( string $namespaceURI )

public void DOMNode::normalize ( void )

public DOMNode DOMNode::removeChild ( DOMNode $oldnode )

public DOMNode DOMNode::replaceChild ( DOMNode $newnode , DOMNode $oldnode )

}

Properties

data: The contents of the node.
length: The length of the contents.

DOMCharacterData::deleteData — Remove a range of characters from the node
DOMCharacterData::insertData — Insert a string at the specified 16-bit unit offset

In case you're looking for the CDATA class to which nodes /do/ correspond, it's called DOMCdataSection (per my PHP installation) and isn't documented on php.net.  Presumably, it doesn't add anything to this API.
