JavaScript and XPages reference
This reference describes the JavaScript™ language elements, Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), and other artifacts that you need to create scripts, plus the XPages simple actions.
DOM (JavaScript)
Represents a document in XML Document Object Model format.
DOMNode (JavaScript)
Represents a node in the Document Object Model.
normalize (DOMNode - JavaScript)
Puts all text nodes under a node, including attribute nodes, into a normal form where only structure (for example, elements, comments, processing instructions, CDATA sections, and entity references) separates text nodes. That is, there are neither adjacent nor empty text nodes.

JavaScript and XPages reference
This reference describes the JavaScript™ language elements, Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), and other artifacts that you need to create scripts, plus the XPages simple actions.
- JavaScript™ language elements (JavaScript™)
  The JavaScript™ language elements are based on the ECMAScript Language Specification Standard ECMA-262 (see http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/standards/Ecma-262.htm). The JavaScript described here applies to the server-side interpreter. Client-side scripts are interpreted by the browser.
- Simple actions (JavaScript)
  A simple action performs a pre-programmed activity that can be modified by arguments.
- Global objects and functions (JavaScript™)
  Global objects provide entry points to server-side scripts. Entering the name of a global object instantiates it.
- DOM (JavaScript)
  Represents a document in XML Document Object Model format.
  - DOMAttr (JavaScript)
    Represents an attribute of an element.
  - DOMCDATASection (JavaScript)
    Represents a CDATA section.
  - DOMCharacterData (JavaScript)
    Provides methods for accessing character data.

    Represents a definition of a document.
  - DOMElement (JavaScript)
    Represents an element in a document.
  - DOMEntity (JavaScript)
    Represents an entity, parsed or not, in a document.
  - DOMEntityReference (JavaScript)
    Represents a reference to an entity.
  - DOMException (JavaScript)
  - DOMImplementation (JavaScript)
    Provides methods for operations independent of an instance of the document object model.
  - DOMNamedNodeMap (JavaScript)
    Represent a collection of nodes.
  - DOMNode (JavaScript)
    Represents a node in the Document Object Model.
    - appendChild (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Appends a child node.
    - cloneNode (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Clones a node.
    - getAttributes (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Gets the attributes of an element node.
    - getChildNodes (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Gets a list of the children of a node.
    - getFirstChild (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Gets the first child of a node.
    - getLastChild (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Gets the last child of a node.
    - getLocalName (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Gets the local part of the qualified name of a node.
    - getNamespaceURI (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Gets the namespace URI of a node.
    - getNextSibling (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Gets the next node at the current level.
    - getNodeName (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Gets the name of a node.
    - getNodeType (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Gets a code representing the node type.
    - getNodeValue (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Gets the value of a node.
    - getOwnerDocument (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Gets the document associated with a node.
    - getParentNode (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Gets the parent node.
    - getPrefix (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Gets the namespace prefix of a node.
    - getPreviousSibling (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Gets the previous node at the current level.
    - hasAttributes (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Checks if an element node has attributes.
    - hasChildNodes (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Checks if a node has children.
    - insertAfter (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Inserts a new node after an existing node.
    - insertBefore (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Inserts a new node before an existing node.
    - isSupported (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Checks if a feature is implemented and supported by a node.
    - moveNodeDown (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Moves a node down in its node list.
    - moveNodeUp (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Moves a node up in its node list.
    - normalize (DOMNode - JavaScript)
      Puts all text nodes under a node, including attribute nodes, into a normal form where only structure (for example, elements, comments, processing instructions, CDATA sections, and entity references) separates text nodes. That is, there are neither adjacent nor empty text nodes.
