 * <code>DOMNodeIterators</code> are used to step through a set of nodes, e.g.
 * the set of nodes in a <code>DOMNodeList</code>, the document subtree
 * governed by a particular <code>DOMNode</code>, the results of a query, or
 * any other set of nodes. The set of nodes to be iterated is determined by
 * the implementation of the <code>DOMNodeIterator</code>. DOM Level 2
 * specifies a single <code>DOMNodeIterator</code> implementation for
 * document-order traversal of a document subtree. Instances of these
 * <code>DOMNodeIterators</code> are created by calling
