Defining prototype property for JavaScript for XML prototype functions

I am using custom javascript functions provided at this link (http://km0.la/js/mozXPath/) to implement particular XML functionality in FireFox.

Here is the code:

if( document.implementation.hasFeature("XPath", "3.0") ) {
    if( typeof XMLDocument == "undefined" ) { XMLDocument = Document; }
    XMLDocument.prototype.selectNodes = function(cXPathString, xNode) {
        if( !xNode ) { xNode = this; }
        var oNSResolver = this.createNSResolver(this.documentEle开发者_Python百科ment);
        var aItems = this.evaluate(cXPathString, xNode, oNSResolver, 
                     XPathResult.ORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE, null);
        var aResult = [];
        for( var i = 0; i < aItems.snapshotLength; i++) {
            aResult[i] = aItems.snapshotItem(i);
        }
        return aResult;
    }
    XMLDocument.prototype.selectSingleNode = function(cXPathString, xNode) {
        if( !xNode ) { xNode = this; } 
        var xItems = this.selectNodes(cXPathString, xNode);
        if( xItems.length > 0 ){ return xItems[0]; }
        else{ return null; }
    }
    Element.prototype.selectNodes = function(cXPathString) {
        if(this.ownerDocument.selectNodes) { 
            return this.ownerDocument.selectNodes(cXPathString, this);
        }
        else { throw "For XML Elements Only"; }
    }
    Element.prototype.selectSingleNode = function(cXPathString) {   
        if(this.ownerDocument.selectSingleNode) {
            return this.ownerDocument.selectSingleNode(cXPathString, this);
        }
        else { throw "For XML Elements Only"; }
    }
}

Assuming the XML object has been defined and loaded with XML content, here is an example of how one would access a an XML tag named "cd_rank":

var cd_rank_XMLObj = XMLObj.selectSingleNode("cd_rank");

What I want to do is add the property "nodeTypedValue" to the selectSingleNode() function, but I'm not sure how to do this. In the Element.prototype.selectSingleNode function, I tried adding:

this.prototype.nodeTypedValue = this.textContent;

However, it's giving me an error saying it's undefined. I even tried adding it outside of the function, just to dumb it down and get the concept, and it also says it's undefined:

var XMLObj.selectSingleNode.prototype.nodeTypedValue = XMLObj.textContent;
alert(XMLObj.selectSingleNode("cd_rank").nodeTypedValue);

Essentially what I'm trying to do, I suppose, is add a prototype property to a prototype function. But I need some help with this. How can i add "nodeTypedValue" such that I write "XMLObj.selectSingleNode(Path).nodeTypedValue"?

Okay, I think I figured out how to add it inside the function, probably due more to luck than logic:

Element.prototype.selectSingleNode = function(cXPathString){    
    if(this.ownerDocument.selectSingleNode) {
        var result = this.ownerDocument.selectSingleNode(cXPathString, this);
        if (result != null) {
            result.nodeTypedValue = result.textContent;
        }
        return result;
    }
    else{throw "For XML Elements Only";}
}
