5713.6.2 Objects in the DOM
58</H2>
59
60<P>
61The definitive documentation for the DOM is the DOM specification from
62the W3C.
63
64<P>
65Note that DOM attributes may also be manipulated as nodes instead of
66as simple strings. It is fairly rare that you must do this, however,
67so this usage is not yet documented.
