<h3>Definitions</h3>

<p>The <dfn id=xml-version><abbr>XML</abbr> version</dfn> of a node is 
the <abbr>XML</abbr> version of the document to which the node belongs.
For a <code>Documemt</code> node, the <abbr>XML</abbr> version

the <abbr>XML</abbr> version of the document is <code>1.0</code><!--
since createDocumentType [DOM3CORE] assumes XML 1.0 [XML10TE] -->.
For any other node, the <abbr>XML</abbr> version of the document
