!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] ([DOM]) is a cross-platform and language-independent [Application Programming Interface] [(API]) that treats an [HTML], [XHTML], or [XML] document as a tree structure wherein each node is an object representing a part of the document. 


The objects can be manipulated programmatically and any visible changes occurring as a result may then be reflected in the display of the document.

[{$pagename}] [Standard] handled by the [World Wide Web Consortium], which last developed a recommendation in [2004|Year 2004]. Since then the [Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group] ([WHATWG]) took over development of the standard, publishing it as a living document. The [World Wide Web Consortium] ([WC3]) now publishes stable snapshots of the [Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group] standard.
