<p>The <code><strong>NonDocumentTypeChildNode</strong></code> interface contains methods that are particular to {{domxref("Node")}} objects that can have a parent, but not suitable for {{domxref("DocumentType")}}.</p>
<p><code>NonDocumentTypeChildNode</code> is a raw interface and no object of this type can be created; it is implemented by {{domxref("Element")}}, and {{domxref("CharacterData")}} objects.</p>
<h2 id="Properties">Properties</h2>
<p><em>There is no inherited property.</em></p>
<dl>
<dt>{{domxref("NonDocumentTypeChildNode.previousElementSibling")}} {{readonlyInline}}</dt>
<dd>Returns the {{domxref("Element")}} immediately prior to this node in its parent's children list, or <code>null</code> if there is no {{domxref("Element")}} in the list prior to this node.</dd>
<dt>{{domxref("NonDocumentTypeChildNode.nextElementSibling")}} {{readonlyInline}}</dt>
<dd>Returns the {{domxref("Element")}} immediately following this node in its parent's children list, or <code>null</code> if there is no {{domxref("Element")}} in the list following this node.</dd>

<p>[1] Firefox 25 also added the two properties defined here on {{domxref("DocumentType")}}, this was removed in Firefox 28 due to compatibility problems, and led to the creation of this new pure interface.</p>
