You iterate over the child nodes. A node can be an element, some text, a
processing instruction, an entity reference, a comment, and so on. So in
your example you hit a text node and the name of a text node is "#text".
If you want to skip text nodes, you can e.g. filter the node type (which
is probably availabe through getNodeType()).
