A processing instruction. Processing instructions consist of a target name and, optionally, text data. The data is only meaningful to the application.

Typically, a processing instruction's data will contain a series of pseudo-attributes. These pseudo-attributes follow the form of element attributes but are not parsed or presented to the application as anything other than text. The application is responsible for parsing the data.

Params:
  • target – The target.
  • data – The data or null if none specified.
  • augmentations – Additional information that may include infoset augmentations.
Throws:
