description

This method extracts from the Text node or Comment node from start starting length characters. This method is useful only when the number of characters in the text contained in the node is greater than the maximum number of characters that can be filled into a string in the JavaScript implementation of the browser. In this case, the JavaScript program cannot directly use the data attribute of the Text node or Comment node, but must use a shorter substring of the node text. In practical applications, this situation is unlikely to occur.
