Definition and Usage..
The hasChildNodes() method returns true if the specified node has any child nodes, otherwise false.
Note: Whitespace inside a node is considered as text nodes, so if you leave any white space or line feeds inside an element, that element still has child nodes.
Syntax: node.hasChildNodes()
