Splitting One Text Node into Three

     

This Example describes a method to split a Text node into three new Node in a DOM document. Methods which are used for splitting of the text node in the DOM Document are described below :-

Element root = doc.getDocumentElement():-allows direct access to the root of the DOM document.

Element paragraph = (Element) root.getFirstChild():-creates a new node named paragraph and gets the child of the root in it.

Text newText = text.splitText(5):-This method splits the text node into two nodes at the specified offset.

Xml code for the program generated is:-

Output of the program:-

Text node before spillting is: Rose India in Rohini Spillted First node is: India in Rohini Spillted Second node is:  in Rohini Spillted Third node is:  Rohini
