public createTextNode(value:String) : XMLNode
Creates a new XML text node with the specified text. The new node initially has no parent, and text nodes cannot have children or siblings. This method returns a reference to the XML object that represents the new text node. This method and the XML.createElement() method are the constructor methods for creating nodes for an XML object.
Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 5
value:String - A string; the text used to create the new text node.
XMLNode - An XMLNode object.
The following example creates two XML text nodes using the createTextNode() method, and places them into existing XML nodes:
// create an XML document
var doc:XML = new XML();
// create three XML nodes using createElement()
var element1:XMLNode = doc.createElement("element1");
var element2:XMLNode = doc.createElement("element2");
var element3:XMLNode = doc.createElement("element3");
// place the new nodes into the XML tree
doc.appendChild(element1);
element1.appendChild(element2);
element1.appendChild(element3);
// create two XML text nodes using createTextNode()
var textNode1:XMLNode = doc.createTextNode("textNode1 String value");
var textNode2:XMLNode = doc.createTextNode("textNode2 String value");
// place the new nodes into the XML tree
element2.appendChild(textNode1);
element3.appendChild(textNode2);
trace(doc);
// output (with line breaks added between tags):
// <element1>
// <element2>textNode1 String value</element2>
// <element3>textNode2 String value</element3>
// </element1>
createElement (XML.createElement method)
