What is the difference between text node and textContent ?
Hello guys, sorry to disturb you all; I was just reading about some DOM APIs and came across text node; what is it? is it the same thing as textContent ?

a text node is a dom node for text
it's created automatically when you use
textContent and/or innerText
this message, when pasted in an html file, is a text nodeoh I see, what about innerHTML ?
that passes the string to the html parser and then adds the nodes to the document
it also executes scripts, events and processes all the css and styles
