/**

 * The <code>DOMText</code> interface inherits from <code>DOMCharacterData</code>

 * and represents the textual content (termed character data in XML) of an

 * <code>DOMElement</code> or <code>DOMAttr</code>. If there is no markup inside

 * an element's content, the text is contained in a single object

 * implementing the <code>DOMText</code> interface that is the only child of

 * the element. If there is markup, it is parsed into the information items

 * (elements, comments, etc.) and <code>DOMText</code> nodes that form the list

 * of children of the element.

 * <p>When a document is first made available via the DOM, there is only one

 * <code>DOMText</code> node for each block of text. Users may create adjacent

 * <code>DOMText</code> nodes that represent the contents of a given element

 * without any intervening markup, but should be aware that there is no way

 * to represent the separations between these nodes in XML or HTML, so they

 * will not (in general) persist between DOM editing sessions. The

 * <code>normalize()</code> method on <code>DOMNode</code> merges any such

 * adjacent <code>DOMText</code> objects into a single node for each block of

 * text.

 * <p>See also the <a href='http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-DOM-Level-2-Core-20001113'>Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2 Core Specification</a>.
