No you must have misunderstood. As I understand the list it should be like this.
For ELEMENT_NODE, ENTITY_NODE, ENTITY_REFERENCE_NODE, DOCUMENT_FRAGMENT_NODE the documentation says: Concatenation of the textContent attribute value of every child node, excluding COMMENT_NODE and PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION_NODE nodes. This is the empty string if the node has no children. Loop over all childs of the node, run getTextContent on each of the nodes and concatenate the result. But my solution is faster. Just process each node in a depth first search order. For ATTRIBUTE_NODE, TEXT_NODE, CDATA_SECTION_NODE, COMMENT_NODE, PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION_NODE: Return result from getNodeValue() For DOCUMENT_NODE, DOCUMENT_TYPE_NODE, NOTATION_NODE return null. This results in the following scenarios (using your example below) poChaperElement->getTextContent() -> "Intro" poidAttribute->getTextContent() -> "123" / Erik -----Original Message----- From: Magnus Strand [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: den 1 april 2003 11:16 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Implementing getTextContent Hi, Do you know why attribute nodes should be included? I have just started using DOM. Does this XML-fragments chapter element have an attribute node as a child? <chapter id="123">Intro</chapter > If so, getTextContent would return "123Intro", seems strange?

Take a look at http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/WD-DOM-Level-3-Core-20030226/core.html#Node3-t extContent for a more full explanation of what the method should do.
