SVGDocument Class

SVGDocument class

An SVGDocument is the root of the SVG hierarchy and holds the entire content. Besides providing access to the hierarchy, it also provides some convenience methods for accessing certain sets of information from the document. When an ‘svg’ element is embedded inline as a component of a document from another namespace, such as when an ‘svg’ element is embedded inline within an XHTML document [XHTML], then an SVGDocument object will not exist; instead, the root object in the document object hierarchy will be a Document object of a different type, such as an HTMLDocument object. However, an SVGDocument object will indeed exist when the root element of the XML document hierarchy is an ‘svg’ element, such as when viewing a stand-alone SVG file(i.e., a file with MIME type “image/svg+xml”). In this case, the SVGDocument object will be the root object of the document object model hierarchy.

Methods

NameDescription
AddEventListener(string, IEventListener)The addEventListener() method of the EventTarget interface sets up a function that will be called whenever the specified event is delivered to the target.
AddEventListener(string, DOMEventHandler, bool)The addEventListener() method of the EventTarget interface sets up a function that will be called whenever the specified event is delivered to the target.
AddEventListener(string, IEventListener, bool)The addEventListener() method of the EventTarget interface sets up a function that will be called whenever the specified event is delivered to the target.
AppendChild(Node)The appendChild() method of the Node interface adds a node to the end of the list of children of a specified parent node. If the given child is a reference to an existing node in the document, appendChild() moves it from its current position to the new position (there is no requirement to remove the node from its parent node before appending it to some other node).
CloneNode()The cloneNode() method of the Node interface returns a duplicate of the node on which this method was called. Its parameter controls if the subtree contained in a node is also cloned or not.
CloneNode(bool)The cloneNode() method of the Node interface returns a duplicate of the node on which this method was called. Its parameter controls if the subtree contained in a node is also cloned or not.
CreateAttribute(string)The Document.createAttribute() method creates a new attribute node, and returns it. The object created a node implementing the Attr interface. The DOM does not enforce what sort of attributes can be added to a particular element in this manner.
CreateAttributeNS(string, string)The Document.createAttribute() method creates a new attribute node, and returns it. The object created a node implementing the Attr interface. The DOM does not enforce what sort of attributes can be added to a particular element in this manner.
CreateCDATASection(string)Creates a CDATASection node whose value is the specified string.
CreateComment(string)Creates a Comment node given the specified string.
CreateDocumentFragment()Creates a new empty DocumentFragment into which DOM nodes can be added to build an offscreen DOM tree.
CreateDocumentType(string, string, string, string)The method returns a DocumentType object which can either be used with DOMImplementation.createDocument upon document creation or can be put into the document via methods like Node.insertBefore() or Node.replaceChild().
CreateElement(string)In an HTML document, the document.createElement() method creates the HTML element specified by tagName, or an HTMLUnknownElement if tagName isn’t recognized.
CreateElementNS(string, string)Creates an element of the given qualified name and namespace URI.
CreateEntityReference(string)Creates an EntityReference object. In addition, if the referenced entity is known, the child list of the EntityReference node is made the same as that of the corresponding Entity node.
CreateEvent(string)Creates an Event of a type supported by the implementation.
CreateExpression(string, IXPathNSResolver)Creates a parsed XPath expression with resolved namespaces. This is useful when an expression will be reused in an application since it makes it possible to compile the expression string into a more efficient internal form and preresolve all namespace prefixes which occur within the expression.
CreateNodeIterator(Node)Create a new NodeIterator over the subtree rooted at the specified node.
CreateNodeIterator(Node, long)Create a new NodeIterator over the subtree rooted at the specified node.
CreateNodeIterator(Node, long, INodeFilter)Create a new NodeIterator over the subtree rooted at the specified node.
CreateNSResolver(Node)Adapts any DOM node to resolve namespaces so that an XPath expression can be easily evaluated relative to the context of the node where it appeared within the document. This adapter works like the DOM Level 3 method lookupNamespaceURI on nodes in resolving the namespaceURI from a given prefix using the current information available in the node’s hierarchy at the time lookupNamespaceURI is called, also correctly resolving the implicit xml prefix.
CreateProcessingInstruction(string, string)Creates a ProcessingInstruction node given the specified name and data strings.
CreateTextNode(string)Creates a Text node given the specified string.
CreateTreeWalker(Node)Create a new TreeWalker over the subtree rooted at the specified node.

DispatchEvent(Event)Dispatches an Event at the specified EventTarget, (synchronously) invoking the affected EventListeners in the appropriate order. The normal event processing rules (including the capturing and optional bubbling phase) also apply to events dispatched manually with dispatchEvent().
Dispose()Performs application-defined tasks associated with freeing, releasing, or resetting unmanaged resources.
Evaluate(string, Node, IXPathNSResolver, XPathResultType, object)Evaluates an XPath expression string and returns a result of the specified type if possible.
GetElementById(string)The Document method getElementById() returns an Element object representing the element whose id property matches the specified string. Since element IDs are required to be unique if specified, they’re a useful way to get access to a specific element quickly.
GetElementsByClassName(string)The getElementsByClassName method of Document interface returns an array-like object of all child elements which have all of the given class name(s).
GetElementsByTagName(string)The getElementsByTagName method of Document interface returns an HTMLCollection of elements with the given tag name.

HasChildNodes()The hasChildNodes() method of the Node interface returns a boolean value indicating whether the given Node has child nodes or not.
ImportNode(Node, bool)Imports a node from another document to this document, without altering or removing the source node from the original document; this method creates a new copy of the source node.
InsertBefore(Node, Node)The insertBefore() method of the Node interface inserts a node before a reference node as a child of a specified parent node.
IsDefaultNamespace(string)The isDefaultNamespace() method of the Node interface accepts a namespace URI as an argument. It returns a boolean value that is true if the namespace is the default namespace on the given node and false if not.
IsEqualNode(Node)The isEqualNode() method of the Node interface tests whether two nodes are equal. Two nodes are equal when they have the same type, defining characteristics (for elements, this would be their ID, number of children, and so forth), its attributes match, and so on. The specific set of data points that must match varies depending on the types of the nodes.
IsSameNode(Node)The isSameNode() method of the Node interface is a legacy alias the for the === strict equality operator. That is, it tests whether two nodes are the same (in other words, whether they reference the same object).
LookupNamespaceURI(string)The lookupNamespaceURI() method of the Node interface takes a prefix as parameter and returns the namespace URI associated with it on the given node if found (and null if not).
LookupPrefix(string)The lookupPrefix() method of the Node interface returns a String containing the prefix for a given namespace URI, if present, and null if not. When multiple prefixes are possible, the first prefix is returned.
Navigate(RequestMessage)Loads the document based on specified request object, replacing the previous content.
Navigate(string)Loads the document at the specified Uniform Resource Locator (URL) into the current instance, replacing the previous content.
Navigate(Url)Loads the document at the specified Uniform Resource Locator (URL) into the current instance, replacing the previous content.
Navigate(Stream, string)Loads the document from specified content and using baseUri to resolve relative resources, replacing the previous content. Document loading starts from the current position in the stream.
Navigate(Stream, Url)Loads the document from specified content and using baseUri to resolve relative resources, replacing the previous content. Document loading starts from the current position in the stream.
Navigate(string, string)Loads the document from specified content and using baseUri to resolve relative resources, replacing the previous content.
Navigate(string, Url)Loads the document from specified content and using baseUri to resolve relative resources, replacing the previous content.
Normalize()Puts all Text nodes in the full depth of the sub-tree underneath this Node, including attribute nodes, into a “normal” form where only structure (e.g., elements, comments, processing instructions, CDATA sections, and entity references) separates Text nodes, i.e., there are neither adjacent Text nodes nor empty Text nodes. This can be used to ensure that the DOM view of a document is the same as if it were saved and re-loaded, and is useful when operations (such as XPointer [XPointer] lookups) that depend on a particular document tree structure are to be used. If the parameter “normalize-characters” of the DOMConfiguration object attached to the Node.ownerDocument is true, this method will also fully normalize the characters of the Text nodes.
QuerySelector(string)Returns the first Element in document, which match selector
QuerySelectorAll(string)Returns a NodeList of all the Elements in document, which match selector
RemoveChild(Node)The removeChild() method of the Node interface removes a child node from the DOM and returns the removed node.
RemoveEventListener(string, IEventListener)This method allows the removal of event listeners from the event target. If an is removed from an while it is processing an event, it will not be triggered by the current actions. Event Listeners can never be invoked after being removed.
RemoveEventListener(string, DOMEventHandler, bool)This method allows the removal of event listeners from the event target. If an is removed from an while it is processing an event, it will not be triggered by the current actions. Event Listeners can never be invoked after being removed.
RemoveEventListener(string, IEventListener, bool)This method allows the removal of event listeners from the event target. If an is removed from an while it is processing an event, it will not be triggered by the current actions. Event Listeners can never be invoked after being removed.

ReplaceChild(Node, Node)Replaces the child node oldChild with newChild in the list of children, and returns the oldChild node. If newChild is a DocumentFragment object, oldChild is replaced by all of the DocumentFragment children, which are inserted in the same order. If the newChild is already in the tree, it is first removed.
