goog.dom.canHaveChildren(node)
Determines if the given node can contain children, intended to be used for HTML generation. IE natively supports node.canHaveChildren but has inconsistent behavior. Prior to IE8 the base tag allows children and in IE9 all nodes return true for canHaveChildren. In practice all non-IE browsers allow you to add children to any node, but the behavior is inconsistent:
var a = document.createElement('br');
a.appendChild(document.createTextNode('foo'));
a.appendChild(document.createTextNode('bar'));
console.log(a.childNodes.length);  // 2
console.log(a.innerHTML);  // Chrome: "", IE9: "foobar", FF3.5: "foobar"

Arguments:
node :
(Node | null)
The node to check.
Returns:   Whether the node can contain children.

Arguments:
parent :
(Document | Element | null)
The parent document object.
Returns:   whether or not we can use parent.querySelector* APIs.
code »

Arguments:
node1 :
(Node | null)
The first node to compare.

tagName :
Tag to create.
opt_attributes :
(Object | null | string | undefined)
