Class ProcessingInstruction

AI-generated Key Takeaways

ProcessingInstruction represents an XML ProcessingInstruction node.
It includes methods to detach the node, get its raw data, retrieve its parent element, get its target, and get its text value.
The detach() method removes the node from its parent, returning the detached node.
The getData() method returns the raw data of the instructions within the node as a string.
The getParentElement() method returns the parent Element node or null if no parent exists.
The getTarget() method returns the target of the ProcessingInstruction node as a string.
The getValue() method returns the combined text value of all direct and indirect child nodes as a string.

Processing Instruction

A representation of an XML Processing Instruction node.

Method	Return type	Brief description
`detach()`	`Content`	Detaches the node from its parent `Element` node.
`get Data()`	`String`	Gets the raw data for every instruction in the `Processing Instruction` node.
`get Parent Element()`	`Element`	Gets the node's parent `Element` node.
`get Target()`	`String`	Gets the target for the `Processing Instruction` node.
`get Value()`	`String`	Gets the text value of all nodes that are direct or indirect children of the node, in the order they appear in the document.

Detaches the node from its parent Element node. If the node does not have a parent, this method has no effect.

Content — the detached node

Gets the raw data for every instruction in the Processing Instruction node.

String — the raw data for every instruction in the Processing Instruction node

Gets the node's parent Element node. If the node does not have a parent, this method returns null .

Element — the parent Element node

Gets the target for the Processing Instruction node.

String — the target for the Processing Instruction node

Gets the text value of all nodes that are direct or indirect children of the node, in the order they appear in the document.

String — the text value of all nodes that are direct or indirect children of the node
