Element.textContent

Element.textContent as String

Summary

This is inherited from the XMLNode object.

The DOM text value of the node.

Usage Notes

The main difference between this and nodeValue is that textContent of element nodes is the string value of the element rather than null.

Example

cts.doc("example.xml").root.firstChild.nodeValue;
const node = fn.head(xdmp.unquote(
  '<ns:parent xmlns:ns="/my/ns"><ns:child>some content</ns:child></ns:parent>'))
  .root;
node.textContent;

// returns 'some content'
