text node and childnodes

I was reading about textNodes and childnodes on the internet. I read much about the nodes but i did get it understand. What are textnodes exactly?

I have a sample HTML and i want to know what are the textNodes of my divs and how to pick childnodes and textnodes.

<head>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        alert(document.childNodes[1].childNodes[0])
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <div id="myDiv">
        <div>abc</div>
    </div>
</body>

  • The entire document is a document node
  • Every HTML element is an element node
  • The text in the HTML elements are text nodes
  • Every HTML attribute is an attribute node
  • Comments are comment nodes
