Properties

Attributes	Gets the list of attributes of this node.
ChildNodes	Gets a list of children in the current node.
Doctype	For XML, this property gets the address of the node that specifies the DTD. This property returns Null for HTML documents and XML documents without a DTD.
DocumentElement	Gets the root element of the document.
DocumentUri	Returns the URL for the last loaded XML document.
FirstChild	Gets the first child node.
Implementation	Gets the Implementation object for the document.
InnerText	Gets the text from inside the XML.
LastChild	Gets the last child node.
LocalName	Gets the local name, which is the local part of a qualified name. This is called the local part in Namespaces in XML.
NamespaceUri	Returns the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) for the namespace.
NextSibling	Gets the next sibling of the node in the parent's child list. This property is not applicable to this class.
NodeName	Returns the qualified name for attribute, document type, element, entity, or notation nodes. Returns a fixed string for all other node types.
NodeType	Gets the XML Document Object Model (DOM) node type, which determines valid values and whether the node can have child nodes.
NodeValue	Gets or sets the text associated with the node.
OwnerDocument	Returns the root of the document that contains the node.
ParentNode	Gets the parent node of the node instance.
Prefix	Gets or sets the namespace prefix.
PreviousSibling	Gets the previous sibling of the node in the parent's child list. This property is not applicable to this class.
