## org.w3c.dom
Interface DocumentType

All Known Implementing Classes:
  QDocumentType

public interface DocumentType
extends Node

Each `Document` has a `doctype` attribute whose value is either `null` or a `DocumentType` object. The `DocumentType` interface in the DOM Level 1 Core provides an interface to the list of entities that are defined for the document, and little else because the effect of namespaces and the various XML scheme efforts on DTD representation are not clearly understood as of this writing.

The DOM Level 1 doesn't support editing `DocumentType` nodes.

Fields inherited from interface org.w3c.dom.Node
`ATTRIBUTE_NODE, CDATA_SECTION_NODE, COMMENT_NODE, DOCUMENT_FRAGMENT_NODE, DOCUMENT_NODE, DOCUMENT_TYPE_NODE, ELEMENT_NODE, ENTITY_NODE, ENTITY_REFERENCE_NODE, NOTATION_NODE, PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION_NODE, TEXT_NODE`

Method Summary
`NamedNodeMap` | `getEntities()` A `NamedNodeMap` containing the general entities, both external and internal, declared in the DTD.
`java.lang.String` | `getName()` The name of DTD; i.e., the name immediately following the `DOCTYPE` keyword.
`NamedNodeMap` | `getNotations()` A `NamedNodeMap` containing the notations declared in the DTD.

Methods inherited from interface org.w3c.dom.Node
`appendChild, cloneNode, getAttributes, getChildNodes, getFirstChild, getLastChild, getNextSibling, getNodeName, getNodeType, getNodeValue, getOwnerDocument, getParentNode, getPreviousSibling, hasChildNodes, insertBefore, removeChild, replaceChild, setNodeValue`

Method Detail

### getName

    public java.lang.String getName()

  The name of DTD; i.e., the name immediately following the `DOCTYPE` keyword.

### getEntities

    public NamedNodeMap getEntities()

  A `NamedNodeMap` containing the general entities, both external and internal, declared in the DTD. Duplicates are discarded. For example in:<!DOCTYPE ex SYSTEM "ex.dtd" [ <!ENTITY foo "foo"> <!ENTITY bar "bar"> <!ENTITY % baz "baz">]> <ex/> the interface provides access to `foo` and `bar` but not `baz`. Every node in this map also implements the `Entity` interface.
  The DOM Level 1 does not support editing entities, therefore `entities` cannot be altered in any way.

### getNotations

    public NamedNodeMap getNotations()

  A `NamedNodeMap` containing the notations declared in the DTD. Duplicates are discarded. Every node in this map also implements the `Notation` interface.
  The DOM Level 1 does not support editing notations, therefore `notations` cannot be altered in any way.
