This function serves as a generic copy constructor for nodes.

The duplicate node has no parent ( <code>parentNode</code> returns <code>null</code>.). <br>
Cloning an <code>Element</code> copies all attributes and their values, including those generated by the XML processor to represent defaulted attributes, but this method does not copy any text it contains unless it is a deep clone, since the text is contained in a child <code>Text</code> node.

Puts all <code>Text</code> nodes in the full depth of the sub-tree underneath this <code>Node</code>, including attribute nodes, into a "normal" form where only markup (e.g., tags, comments, processing instructions, CDATA sections, and entity references) separates <code>Text</code> nodes, i.e., there are no adjacent <code>Text</code> nodes.
<p>
This can be used to ensure that the DOM view of a document is the  same as if it were saved and re-loaded, and is useful when operations  (such as XPointer lookups) that depend on a particular document tree  structure are to be used. 
<p>
<b>Note:</b> In cases where the document contains <code>CDATASections</code>,  the normalize operation alone may not be sufficient, since XPointers do  not differentiate between <code>Text</code> nodes and <code>CDATASection</code> nodes.

<a class="el" href="classXalanComment.html#a3">getNodeValue</a>) will also accept requests to set it to a string. The exact response to this varies from node to node -- Attribute, for example, stores its values in its children and has to replace them with a new Text holding the replacement value.
<p>
</dl>For most types of Node, value is null and attempting to set it will throw DOMException(NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR). This will also be thrown if the node is read-only.

Set the <em>namespace prefix</em> of this node.

 Note that setting this attribute, when permitted, changes  the <code>nodeName</code> attribute, which holds the <em>qualified  name</em>, as well as the <code>tagName</code> and <code>name</code>  attributes of the <code>Element</code> and <code>Attr</code> interfaces, when applicable. 
<p>
 Note also that changing the prefix of an  attribute, that is known to have a default value, does not make a new  attribute with the default value and the original prefix appear, since the  <code>namespaceURI</code> and <code>localName</code> do not change.<dl compact><dt>
