The EventTarget.addEventListener() method registers the specified listener on the EventTarget it's called on.
The EventTarget.addEventListener() method registers the specified listener on the EventTarget it's called on. The event target may be an Element in a document, the Document itself, a Window, or any other object that supports events (such as XMLHttpRequest).
MDN
Adds a node to the end of the list of children of a specified parent node.
Adds a node to the end of the list of children of a specified parent node. If the node already exists it is removed from current parent node, then added to new parent node.

.attributes is a collection of all attribute nodes registered to the specified node.
.attributes is a collection of all attribute nodes registered to the specified node. It is a NamedNodeMap,not an Array, so it has no Array methods and the Attr nodes' indexes may differ among browsers. To be more specific, attribute is a key value pair of strings that represents any information regarding that node; it cannot hold Object. Attribute can hold additional data/information that is required while processing custom JavaScript. There are many predefined attributes for different nodes used for binding events, validations, and specifying layout informations that are handled by browser (may vary from browser to browser).
MDN
Returns a live NodeList containing all the children of this node.
Returns a live NodeList containing all the children of this node. NodeList being live means that if the children of the Node change, the NodeList object is automatically updated.
MDN
Clone a Node, and optionally, all of its contents.
Clone a Node, and optionally, all of its contents. By default, it clones the content of the node.
MDN
Compares the position of the current node against another node in any other document.
Compares the position of the current node against another node in any other document.
MDN
Dispatches an Event at the specified EventTarget, invoking the affected EventListeners in the appropriate order.
Dispatches an Event at the specified EventTarget, invoking the affected EventListeners in the appropriate order. The normal event processing rules (including the capturing and optional bubbling phase) apply to events dispatched manually with dispatchEvent().
MDN
Returns the node's first child in the tree, or null if the node is childless.
Returns the node's first child in the tree, or null if the node is childless. If the node is a Document, it returns the first node in the list of its direct children.

hasAttributes returns a boolean value of true or false, indicating if the current element has any attributes or not.
hasAttributes returns a boolean value of true or false, indicating if the current element has any attributes or not.
MDN
hasChildNodes returns a Boolean value indicating whether the current Node has child nodes or not.
hasChildNodes returns a Boolean value indicating whether the current Node has child nodes or not.

isDefaultNamespace accepts a namespace URI as an argument and returns true if the namespace is the default namespace on the given node or false if not.

The Node.isSupported()returns a Boolean flag containing the result of a test whether the DOM implementation implements a specific feature and this feature is supported by the specific node.

MDN
Returns a Node representing the last direct child node of the node, or null if the node has no child.
Returns a Node representing the last direct child node of the node, or null if the node has no child.
MDN
Returns a DOMString representing the local part of the qualified name of an element.
Returns a DOMString representing the local part of the qualified name of an element. In Firefox 3.5 and earlier, the property upper-cases the local name for HTML elements (but not XHTML elements). In later versions, this does not happen, so the property is in lower case for both HTML and XHTML. Though the specification requires localName to be defined on the Node interface, Gecko-based browsers implement it on the Element interface.
MDN
Takes a prefix and returns the namespaceURI associated with it on the given node if found (and null if not).
Takes a prefix and returns the namespaceURI associated with it on the given node if found (and null if not). Supplying null for the prefix will return the default namespace.
MDN
Returns the prefix for a given namespaceURI if present, and null if not.
Returns the prefix for a given namespaceURI if present, and null if not. When multiple prefixes are possible, the result is implementation-dependent.
MDN
The namespace URI of this node, or null if it is no namespace.
The namespace URI of this node, or null if it is no namespace. In Firefox 3.5 and earlier, HTML elements are in no namespace. In later versions, HTML elements are in the http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml namespace in both HTML and XML trees. Though the specification requires namespaceURI to be defined on the Node interface, Gecko-based browsers implement it on the Element interface.
MDN
Returns the node immediately following the specified one in its parent's childNodes list, or null if the specified node is the last node in that list.
Returns the node immediately following the specified one in its parent's childNodes list, or null if the specified node is the last node in that list.
MDN
Returns a DOMString containing the name of the Node.
Returns a DOMString containing the name of the Node. The structure of the name will differ with the name type. E.g. An HTMLElement will contain the name of the corresponding tag, like 'audio' for an HTMLAudioElement, a Text node will have the '#text' string, or a Document node will have the '#document' string.
MDN
The read-only Node.nodeType property returns an unsigned short integer representing the type of the node.
The read-only Node.nodeType property returns an unsigned short integer representing the type of the node.
MDN
Is a DOMString representing the value of an object.
Is a DOMString representing the value of an object. For most Node type, this returns null and any set operation is ignored. For nodes of type TEXT_NODE (Text objects), COMMENT_NODE (Comment objects), and PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION_NODE (ProcessingInstruction objects), the value corresponds to the text data contained in the object.
MDN
Puts the specified node and all of its subtree into a "normalized" form.
Puts the specified node and all of its subtree into a "normalized" form. In a normalized subtree, no text nodes in the subtree are empty and there are no adjacent text nodes.
MDN
Returns the Document that this node belongs to.
Returns the Document that this node belongs to. If no document is associated with it, returns null.
MDN
Returns a Node that is the parent of this node.
Returns a Node that is the parent of this node. If there is no such node, like if this node is the top of the tree or if doesn't participate in a tree, this property returns null.
MDN
Is a DOMString representing the namespace prefix of the node, or null if no prefix is specified.
Is a DOMString representing the namespace prefix of the node, or null if no prefix is specified. Though the specification requires localName to be defined on the Node interface, Gecko-based browsers implement it on the Element interface.
MDN
Returns the node immediately preceding the specified one in its parent's childNodes list, null if the specified node is the first in that list.
Returns the node immediately preceding the specified one in its parent's childNodes list, null if the specified node is the first in that list.

A Node is an interface from which a number of DOM types inherit, and allows these various types to be treated (or tested) similarly.
The following interfaces all inherit from Node its methods and properties: Document, Element, CharacterData (which Text, Comment, and CDATASection inherit), ProcessingInstruction, DocumentFragment, DocumentType, Notation, Entity, EntityReference
These interfaces may return null in particular cases where the methods and properties are not relevant. They may throw an exception - for example when adding children to a node type for which no children can exist.
