| * The <code>CharacterData</code> interface extends Node with a set of |

| * these attributes and methods. No DOM objects correspond directly to |

| * inherit the interface from it. All <code>offsets</code> in this interface |
| * start from <code>0</code>. |
| * <p>As explained in the <code>DOMString</code> interface, text strings in |
| * the DOM are represented in UTF-16, i.e. as a sequence of 16-bit units. In |
| * the following, the term 16-bit units is used whenever necessary to |
| * indicate that indexing on CharacterData is done in 16-bit units. |
