Function result

Value for the TextContent property.

Description

GetTextContent is an overridden method in TDOMNode_WithChildren used to get the value for the TextContent property. It re-implements the method to ensure that child nodes are represented in the value for the property.

Child nodes are processed, start at FirstChild and continuing to the NextSibling for the child node. The NodeType property for each child node is used to determine the actions needed for the node type. For example:

TEXT_NODE

Casts the child node to TDOMText and appends its Data to the value for the property (when it is not ignorable whitespace).

COMMENT_NODE, PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION_NODE

These child node types are omitted from the property value.

Other NodeTypes

The TextContent property for the child node is appended to the property value.
