Now i know ,the element is one of node
All node types in here"http://www.w3schools.com/dom/dom_nodetype.asp"
Element is between the start tag and end in the end tag
So text node is a node , but not a element.
As described in the various XML specifications, an
element
is that which consists of a start tag, and end tag, and the content in between, or alternately an empty element tag (which has no content or end tag). In other words, these are all elements:Though you hear "node" used with roughly the same meaning, it has no precise definition per XML specs. It's usually used to refer to nodes of things like DOMs, which may be closely related to XML or use XML for their representation.
XML Element is a XML Node but with additional elements like attributes.
A node is defined as:
or as:
Now their are many different kinds of nodes as an elements node, an attribute node etc.
node & element are same. Every element is a node , but it's not that every node must be an element.
Element is the only kind of node that can have child nodes and attributes.
Document also has child nodes, BUT
no attributes, no text, exactly one child element.
