This class is a base class for nodes that hold strings of
text. All strings are represented as 16-bit Unicode
characters; use str() if you
need to coerce them to 8-bit character strings.
There are three classes derived from CharacterData: Text for text children of elements, CDATA for CDATA sections, and
Comment for XML comments.
Its attributes include:
.data
The content of the node as a string.
.length
The length of the content in characters.
Methods defined on CharacterData
objects are enumerated below.
