NAME
       XML::LibXML::NodeList - a list of XML document nodes

DESCRIPTION
       An XML::LibXML::NodeList object contains an ordered list of nodes, as
       detailed by the W3C DOM documentation of Node Lists.

SYNOPSIS
	 my $results = $dom->findnodes(’//somepath’);
	 foreach my $context ($results->get_nodelist) {
	   my $newresults = $context->findnodes(’./other/element’);
	   ...
	 }

API
       new()

       You will almost never have to create a new NodeSet object, as it is
       all done for you by XPath.

       get_nodelist()

       Returns a list of nodes, the contents of the node list, as a perl
       list.

       string_value()

       Returns the string-value of the first node in the list.	See the XPath
       specification for what "string-value" means.

       to_literal()

       Returns the concatenation of all the string-values of all the nodes in
       the list.

       get_node($pos)

       Returns the node at $pos. The node position in XPath is based at 1,
       not 0.

       size()

       Returns the number of nodes in the NodeSet.

       pop()

       Equivalent to perl’s pop function.

       push(@nodes)

       Equivalent to perl’s push function.

       append($nodelist)

       Given a nodelist, appends the list of nodes in $nodelist to the end of
       the current list.

       shift()

       Equivalent to perl’s shift function.

       unshift(@nodes)

       Equivalent to perl’s unshift function.

       prepend($nodeset)

       Given a nodelist, prepends the list of nodes in $nodelist to the front
       of the current list.

       iterator()

       Will return a new nodelist iterator for the current nodelist. A
       nodelist iterator is usefull if more complex nodelist processing is
       needed.
