DOMText->splitText() — Breaks this node into two nodes at the specified offset

### Description

DOMText
DOMText splitText ( int `$offset` )

Breaks this node into two nodes at the specified `offset` , keeping both in the tree as siblings.

After being split, this node will contain all the content up to the `offset` . If the original node had a parent node, the new node is inserted as the next sibling of the original node. When the `offset` is equal to the length of this node, the new node has no data.

### Parameters

`offset`

  The offset at which to split, starting from 0.

### Return Values

The new node of the same type, which contains all the content at and after the `offset` .
