// DocumentFragment
is a "lightweight" or "minimal"
// Document
object. It is very common to want to be able to
// extract a portion of a document's tree or to create a new fragment of a
// document. Imagine implementing a user command like cut or rearranging a
// document by moving fragments around. It is desirable to have an object
// which can hold such fragments and it is quite natural to use a Node for
// this purpose. While it is true that a Document
object could
// fulfil this role, a Document
object can potentially be a
// heavyweight object, depending on the underlying implementation. What is
// really needed for this is a very lightweight object.
// DocumentFragment
is such an object.
//
Furthermore, various operations -- such as inserting nodes as children
// of another Node
-- may take DocumentFragment
// objects as arguments; this results in all the child nodes of the
// DocumentFragment
being moved to the child list of this node.
//
The children of a DocumentFragment
node are zero or more
// nodes representing the tops of any sub-trees defining the structure of the
// document. DocumentFragment
nodes do not need to be
// well-formed XML documents (although they do need to follow the rules
// imposed upon well-formed XML parsed entities, which can have multiple top
// nodes). For example, a DocumentFragment
might have only one
// child and that child node could be a Text
node. Such a
// structure model represents neither an HTML document nor a well-formed XML
// document.
//
When a DocumentFragment
is inserted into a
// Document
(or indeed any other Node
that may take
// children) the children of the DocumentFragment
and not the
// DocumentFragment
itself are inserted into the
// Node
. This makes the DocumentFragment
very
// useful when the user wishes to create nodes that are siblings; the
// DocumentFragment
acts as the parent of these nodes so that the
// user can use the standard methods from the Node
interface,
// such as insertBefore()
and appendChild()
.
