Abstract :
Developers manipulating Web documents to provide user interaction need a standard interface to those documents. The paper discusses the W3C Document Object Model Level 1 which defines the standardized interface. The DOM Level 1 defines a language- and platform-neutral API for accessing, navigating and manipulating HTML and XML documents. As such, it is a foundation for the development of applications that use Web documents in an object-oriented paradigm
