splitText method

Divides a text node at the specified index.

Syntax

IHTMLDOMNode retVal = object.splitText(offset);

Parameters

• offset [in, optional]
  Type: long

  A long that specifies the index of the string that indicates where the separation occurs. If a value is not provided, a new text node with no value is created.

Standards information

• Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Core Specification, Section 1.4

Remarks

The text node that invokes the IHTMLDOMTextNode::splitText method has a IHTMLDOMAttribute::nodeValue equal to the substring of the value, from zero to offset. The new text node has a IHTMLDOMAttribute::nodeValue of the substring of the original value, from the specified index to the value length. Text node integrity is not preserved when the document is saved or persisted.
