Node.ParentNode

Node.ParentNode property

Returns the parent of the specified node in the DOM tree.

Document and DocumentFragment nodes can never have a parent, so ParentNode will always return null. It also returns null if the node has just been created and is not yet attached to the tree.

public Node ParentNode { get; }

Property Value

A Node that is the parent of the current node. The parent of an element is an Element node, a Document node, or a DocumentFragment node.

Remarks
