FUNCTIONS

The following functions are available:

escape_xml_text

Escapes the text as if would be added to a Text node. This function escapes only the entities <, > and &.

Parameters:

Escapes the text as if would be added to an Attribute. This function escapes the entities <, >, &, ' and ".

Parameters:

  • $string

    The string to escape.

isa_dom_document

Returns true if the node is a DOM Document (instance of XML::LibXML::Document).

Parameters:

  • $node

    The node to check.

isa_dom_element

Returns true if the node is a DOM Element (instance of XML::LibXML::Element).

Parameters:

  • $node

    The node to check.

isa_dom_attr

Returns true if the node is a DOM Attribute (instance of XML::LibXML::Attr).

Parameters:

  • $node

    The node to check.

isa_dom_nodelist

Returns true if the node is a DOM NodeList (instance of XML::LibXML::NodeList).

Parameters:

  • $node

    The node to check.

isa_dom_text

Returns true if the node is a DOM Text (instance of XML::LibXML::Text).

NOTE: XML::LibXML considers that Comment and CDATA nodes are also Text nodes. This method doesn't consider a Comment nor a CDATA node as being Text nodes.

Parameters:

  • $node

    The node to check.

isa_dom_comment

Returns true if the node is a DOM Comment (instance of XML::LibXML::Comment).

Parameters:

  • $node

    The node to check.

isa_dom_node

Returns true if the node is a DOM Node (instance of XML::LibXML::Node).

Parameters:

  • $node

    The node to check.

isa_dom_pi

Returns true if the node is a DOM PI (also known as: processing instruction) (instance of XML::LibXML::PI).

Parameters:

  • $node

    The node to check.

isa_dom_dtd

Returns true if the node is a DOM DTD (instance of XML::LibXML::Dtd).

Parameters:

  • $node

    The node to check.

isa_dom_cdata

Returns true if the node is a DOM CDATASection (instance of XML::LibXML::CDATASection).

Parameters:

  • $node

    The node to check.

isa_dom_namespace

Returns true if the node is a Namespace (instance of XML::LibXML::Namespace).

NOTE: The DOM doesn't define an object type named Namespaces but XML::LibXML does so this function is named 'isa_dom' for consistency with the other functions.

Parameters:

  • $node

    The node to check.

isa_dom_literal

Returns true if the node is a Literal (instance of XML::LibXML::Literal).

NOTE: The DOM doesn't define an object type named Literal but XML::LibXML does so this function is named 'isa_dom' for consistency with the other functions.

Parameters:

  • $node

    The node to check.

isa_dom_boolean

Returns true if the node is a Boolean (instance of XML::LibXML::Boolean).

NOTE: The DOM doesn't define an object type named Boolean but XML::LibXML does so this function is named 'isa_dom' for consistency with the other functions.

Parameters:

  • $node

    The node to check.

isa_dom_number

Returns true if the node is a Number (instance of XML::LibXML::Number).

NOTE: The DOM doesn't define an object type named Number but XML::LibXML does so this function is named 'isa_dom' for consistency with the other functions.

Parameters:

  • $node

    The node to check.
