📛 NAME

XML::DOM::AttlistDecl — An XML ATTLIST declaration in XML::DOM.

🚀 Quick Reference

📖 Description

XML::DOM::AttlistDecl extends XML::DOM::Node but is not part of the DOM Level 1 specification.

This node represents an ATTLIST declaration, e.g.

<!ATTLIST person
  sex      (male|female)  #REQUIRED
  hair     CDATA          "bold"
  eyes     (none|one|two) "two"
  species  (human)        #FIXED "human">

Each attribute definition is stored as a separate AttDef node. The AttDef nodes can be retrieved with getAttDef and added with addAttDef. (The AttDef nodes are stored in a NamedNodeMap internally.)

🔧 Methods

• getName() — Returns the Element tagName.
• getAttDef(attrName) — Returns the AttDef node for the attribute with the specified name.
• addAttDef(attrName, type, default, [fixed]) — Adds an AttDef node for the attribute with the specified name. Parameters: attrName the attribute name. type the attribute type (e.g. "CDATA" or "(male|female)"). default the default value enclosed in quotes (!), the string #IMPLIED or the string #REQUIRED. fixed whether the attribute is '#FIXED' (default is 0).
