NAME

XML::DOM::AttlistDecl - An XML ATTLIST declaration in XML::DOM

DESCRIPTION

XML::DOM::AttlistDecl extends the XML::DOM::Node manpage 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 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

getAttDef (attrName): Returns the AttDef node for the attribute with the specified name.
addAttDef (attrName, type, default, [ fixed ]): Adds a 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.)
