There are actually five child nodes under ``<bookstore>``: the 1st, 3rd, 5th children are text nodes (any space between node elements are captured by text nodes), while the 2nd and 4th nodes are element nodes corresponding to the ``<book>`` elements.

One may use the function ``nodetype`` to determine the type of a node, which returns an integer following the table [here](http://www.w3schools.com/dom/dom_nodetype.asp). In particular, 1 indicates element node and 3 indicates text node.

**Note:** The functions ``child_nodes``, ``child_elements``, and ``attributes`` return light weight iterators -- so that one can use them with for-loop. To get an array of all items, one may use the ``collect`` function provided by Julia.
