    Function string

    • Reads a selected value as text.

      Converts values as the XPath string() function does: attributes are read as their value, other nodes as the text content of their subtree (comments excluded), and computed strings, numbers or booleans as their written form.

      Parameters

      • node: Target

        The Target to read, either a selected node or a computed value

      Returns string

      The text of node, with whitespace runs collapsed to a single space and leading and trailing whitespace removed, so that content spread across several lines reads as evenly spaced text
