XML DOM - The NodeList Object

The NodeList object represents an ordered list of nodes.

The NodeList object

The nodes in the NodeList can be accessed through their index number (starting from 0).

The NodeList keeps itself up-to-date. If an element is deleted or added, in the node list or the XML document, the list is automatically updated.

Note: In a node list, the nodes are returned in the order in which they are specified in the XML.

IE: Internet Explorer, F: Firefox, O: Opera, W3C: World Wide Web Consortium (Internet Standard)
