Method	update​_all​_atts​_convert	Updates all attributes from node or dictionary dict_.
Method	update​_basic​_atts	Update basic attributes ('ids', 'names', 'classes', 'dupnames', but not 'source') from node or dictionary dict_.
Class Variable	basic​_attributes	Tuple of attributes which are defined for every Element-derived class instance and can be safely transferred to a different node.
Class Variable	child​_text​_separator	Separator for child nodes, used by astext() method.
Class Variable	known​_attributes	Tuple of attributes that are known to the Element base class.
Class Variable	list​_attributes	Tuple of attributes that are automatically initialized to empty lists for all nodes.

Instance Variable	children	List of child nodes (elements and/or Text).
Instance Variable	rawsource	The raw text from which this element was constructed.
Instance Variable	referenced	Undocumented
Instance Variable	tagname	The element generic identifier. If None, it is set as an instance attribute to the name of the class.
Method	​_dom​_node	Undocumented

Inherited from Node (via Element):

Method	__bool__	Node instances are always true, even if they're empty. A node is more than a simple container. Its boolean "truth" does not depend on having one or more subnodes in the doctree.
Method	__str__	Undocumented
Method	asdom	Return a DOM fragment representation of this Node.
Method	document.setter	Undocumented
Method	findall	Return an iterator yielding nodes following self:
Method	next​_node	Return the first node in the iterator returned by findall(), or None if the iterable is empty.
Method	previous​_sibling	Return preceding sibling node or None.
Method	setup​_child	Undocumented
Method	traverse	Return list of nodes following self.
Method	walk	No summary
Method	walkabout	Perform a tree traversal similarly to Node.walk() (which see), except also call the dispatch_departure() method before exiting each node.
Class Variable	line	The line number (1-based) of the beginning of this Node in source.
Class Variable	parent	Back-reference to the Node immediately containing this Node.
Class Variable	source	Path or description of the input source which generated this Node.
Property	document	Return the document node at the root of the tree containing this Node.
Method	​_fast​_findall	Return iterator that only supports instance checks.
Method	​_superfast​_findall	Return iterator that doesn't check for a condition.
Instance Variable	​_document	Undocumented
