/**

16 |
|
|
* The <code>CharacterData</code> interface extends Node with a set of
|
17 |
|
|
* attributes and methods for accessing character data in the DOM. For
|
18 |
|
|
* clarity this set is defined here rather than on each object that uses
|
19 |
|
|
* these attributes and methods. No DOM objects correspond directly to
|
20 |
|
|
* <code>CharacterData</code>, though <code>Text</code> and others do
|
21 |
|
|
* inherit the interface from it. All <code>offsets</code> in this interface
|
22 |
|
|
* start from <code>0</code>.
|
23 |
|
|
* <p>As explained in the <code>DOMString</code> interface, text strings in
|
24 |
|
|
* the DOM are represented in UTF-16, i.e. as a sequence of 16-bit units. In
|
25 |
|
|
* the following, the term 16-bit units is used whenever necessary to
|
26 |
|
|
* indicate that indexing on CharacterData is done in 16-bit units.
|
27 |
