| org.w3c.dom.NamedNodeMap
All known Subclasses: org.apache.xerces.dom.NamedNodeMapImpl, com.rimfaxe.xml.compatibility.NamedNodeMapImpl,
| NamedNodeMap | | public interface NamedNodeMap (Code) | | Objects implementing the NamedNodeMap interface are used to
represent collections of nodes that can be accessed by name. Note that
NamedNodeMap does not inherit from NodeList;
NamedNodeMaps are not maintained in any particular order.
Objects contained in an object implementing NamedNodeMap may
also be accessed by an ordinal index, but this is simply to allow
convenient enumeration of the contents of a NamedNodeMap,
and does not imply that the DOM specifies an order to these Nodes.
NamedNodeMap objects in the DOM are live.
See also the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2 Core Specification.

| Method Summary | |
| public int | getLength()
The number of nodes in this map. | | public Node | getNamedItem(String name)
Retrieves a node specified by name.
Parameters:
name - The nodeName of a node to retrieve. | | public Node | getNamedItemNS(String namespaceURI, String localName)
Retrieves a node specified by local name and namespace URI.
Documents which do not support the "XML" feature will permit only
the DOM Level 1 calls for creating/setting elements and attributes. | | public Node | item(int index)
Returns the indexth item in the map. | | public Node | removeNamedItem(String name)
Removes a node specified by name. | | public Node | removeNamedItemNS(String namespaceURI, String localName)
Removes a node specified by local name and namespace URI. | | public Node | setNamedItem(Node arg)
Adds a node using its nodeName attribute. | | public Node | setNamedItemNS(Node arg)
Adds a node using its namespaceURI and
localName. |
| getLength | | public int getLength()(Code) | | The number of nodes in this map. The range of valid child node indices
is 0 to length-1 inclusive.
|
| getNamedItem | | public Node getNamedItem(String name)(Code) | | Retrieves a node specified by name.
Parameters:
name - The nodeName of a node to retrieve. A Node (of any type) with the specified nodeName, or null if it does not identify any node in this map. |
| getNamedItemNS | | public Node getNamedItemNS(String namespaceURI, String localName)(Code) | | Retrieves a node specified by local name and namespace URI.
Documents which do not support the "XML" feature will permit only
the DOM Level 1 calls for creating/setting elements and attributes.
Hence, if you specify a non-null namespace URI, these DOMs will never
find a matching node.
Parameters:
namespaceURI - The namespace URI of the node to retrieve.
Parameters:
localName - The local name of the node to retrieve. A Node (of any type) with the specified local name and namespace URI, or null if they do not identify any node in this map.

DOM Level 2 |
| item | | public Node item(int index)(Code) | | Returns the indexth item in the map. If index
is greater than or equal to the number of nodes in this map, this
returns null.
Parameters:
index - Index into this map. The node at the indexth position in the map, or null if that is not a valid index. |
| removeNamedItem | | public Node removeNamedItem(String name) throws DOMException(Code) | | Removes a node specified by name. When this map contains the attributes
attached to an element, if the removed attribute is known to have a
default value, an attribute immediately appears containing the
default value as well as the corresponding namespace URI, local name,
and prefix when applicable.
Parameters:
name - The nodeName of the node to remove. The node removed from this map if a node with such a name exists.
exception:
DOMException - NOT_FOUND_ERR: Raised if there is no node named name in this map.
NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this map is readonly. |
| removeNamedItemNS | | public Node removeNamedItemNS(String namespaceURI, String localName) throws DOMException(Code) | | Removes a node specified by local name and namespace URI. A removed
attribute may be known to have a default value when this map contains
the attributes attached to an element, as returned by the attributes
attribute of the Node interface. If so, an attribute
immediately appears containing the default value as well as the
corresponding namespace URI, local name, and prefix when applicable.
Documents which do not support the "XML" feature will permit only
the DOM Level 1 calls for creating/setting elements and attributes.
Hence, if you specify a non-null namespace URI, these DOMs will never
find a matching node.
Parameters:
namespaceURI - The namespace URI of the node to remove.
Parameters:
localName - The local name of the node to remove. The node removed from this map if a node with such a local name and namespace URI exists.
exception:
DOMException - NOT_FOUND_ERR: Raised if there is no node with the specified namespaceURI and localName in this map.
NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this map is readonly.

| setNamedItem | | public Node setNamedItem(Node arg) throws DOMException(Code) | | Adds a node using its nodeName attribute. If a node with
that name is already present in this map, it is replaced by the new
one.
As the nodeName attribute is used to derive the name
which the node must be stored under, multiple nodes of certain types
(those that have a "special" string value) cannot be stored as the
names would clash. This is seen as preferable to allowing nodes to be
aliased.
Parameters:
arg - A node to store in this map. The node will later be accessible using the value of its nodeName attribute. If the new Node replaces an existing node the replaced Node is returned, otherwise null is returned.
exception:
DOMException - WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR: Raised if arg was created from a different document than the one that created this map.
NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this map is readonly.
INUSE_ATTRIBUTE_ERR: Raised if arg is an Attr that is already an attribute of another Element object. The DOM user must explicitly clone Attr nodes to re-use them in other elements.
HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR: Raised if an attempt is made to add a node doesn't belong in this NamedNodeMap. Examples would include trying to insert something other than an Attr node into an Element's map of attributes, or a non-Entity node into the DocumentType's map of Entities. |
| setNamedItemNS | | public Node setNamedItemNS(Node arg) throws DOMException(Code) | | Adds a node using its namespaceURI and
localName. If a node with that namespace URI and that
local name is already present in this map, it is replaced by the new
one.
Parameters:
arg - A node to store in this map. The node will later be accessible using the value of its namespaceURI and localName attributes. If the new Node replaces an existing node the replaced Node is returned, otherwise null is returned.
exception:
DOMException - WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR: Raised if arg was created from a different document than the one that created this map.
NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this map is readonly.
INUSE_ATTRIBUTE_ERR: Raised if arg is an Attr that is already an attribute of another Element object. The DOM user must explicitly clone Attr nodes to re-use them in other elements.
HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR: Raised if an attempt is made to add a node doesn't belong in this NamedNodeMap. Examples would include trying to insert something other than an Attr node into an Element's map of attributes, or a non-Entity node into the DocumentType's map of Entities.
NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: Always thrown if the current document does not support the "XML" feature, since namespaces were defined by XML.
