The ProcessingInstruction Interface
The ProcessingInstruction interface represents a processing instruction such as <?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="order.css"?> or <?php echo "Hello World";?>.
Example 11.17 summarizes the ProcessingInstruction interface. This interface adds methods to get the target and the data of the processing instruction as strings. Even if the data has a pseudo-attribute format, as in <?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="order.css"?>, DOM doesn't recognize that. For this processing instruction, the target is xml-stylesheet and the data is type="text/css" href="order.css."
