If the object is a TextNode object, the IHTMLDOMNode::nodeValue property returns a string that represents the text that the node contains.

You cannot use expressions to change the IHTMLDOMNode::nodeValue of a TextNode object.

If the object is an attribute object retrieved from the attributes collection, the IHTMLDOMNode::nodeValue property returns the value of the attribute if it has been specified, or null otherwise.

If the object is an element, the IHTMLDOMNode::nodeValue returns null. Use the IHTMLDOMNode::nodeName property to determine the element name.
