Description Filipus Klutiero 2012-01-29 00:09:41 UTC 
The description of the wholeText attribute of the Text interface reads:

Returns all text of Text nodes logically-adjacent text nodes to this node, concatenated in document order.
For instance, in the example below wholeText on the Text node that contains "bar" returns "barfoo", while on the Text node that contains "foo" it returns "barfoo".

http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-DOM-Level-3-Core-20040407/core.html#ID-1312295772

Something is wrong with the first sentence ("Returns all text of Text nodes logically-adjacent text nodes to this node"). This should probably read either
all text of Text nodes which are logically-adjacent to this node
or
all text of logically-adjacent Text nodes of this node

By the way, I do not understand the example very well.
Is "&ent;" an entity?
