• A cross-platform and language-independent interface that treats an XML or HTML document as a tree structure wherein each node is an object representing a part of the document. The DOM represents a document with a logical tree. Each branch of the tree ends in a node, and each node contains objects. DOM methods allow programmatic access to the tree; with them one can change the structure, style, or content of a document. Nodes can have event handlers attached to them. ← Wikipedia ↑ dom.spec.whatwg.org
