 node and its children in document order (depth first, pre-order
 traversal, which is equivalent to the order in which the start tags occur

              | NodeFilter | Filters are objects that know how to "filter out" nodes. | 
        
              | NodeIterator | NodeIteratorsare used to step through a set of nodes, e.g. | 
        
              | TreeWalker | TreeWalkerobjects are used to navigate a document tree or
