A document type declaration information item maps to a DocumentType node. The attributes of the corresponding DocumentType node are constructed as follows:

NOTE:
The [children] property is not exposed through the DocumentType node.

DocumentType Node to Infoset

A DocumentType maps to a document type declaration information item. The properties of the corresponding document type declaration information item are constructed as follows:

13The table contains the mapping of a Node to the Infoset Property Value

11[system identifier]	11`DocumentType.systemId`
11[public identifier]	11`DocumentType.publicId`
11[children]	11The value of this property is implementation dependent
11[parent]	11`Node.parentNode`
