|
* <code>TreeWalker</code> objects are used to navigate a document tree or

20 |
|
|
* subtree using the view of the document defined by their
|
21 |
|
|
* <code>whatToShow</code> flags and filter (if any). Any function which

|
24 |

* structure that is substantially different from the same subtree in the
|
26 |

27 |
|
|
* <code>TreeWalker</code> view may be children of different, widely
|
28 |

|
* separated nodes in the original view. For instance, consider a

30 |
|
|
* the root node of a document. In the logical view that results, all text
