Abstract
The DOM provides a powerful mechanism for making broad changes to your web site with minimal effort and changes to your existing design. As older versions of IE fade away, DOM scripting will become both a realistic and simple way to support interoperable functionality without sacrificing downlevel compatibility.
I began this chapter with a primer on the relevant portions of JavaScript programming and properties as they apply to DOM scripting. After that, you saw a number of examples of how DOM scripting can be used to solve real-world web programming challenges. I encourage you to use this chapter as a springboard for investigating and using these powerful features in your web applications.
