The Document Object Model (DOM) is an application programming interface (API) for markup documents, like HTML, SVG, MathML, and XML. The DOM provides a logically structured representation of a document, and a set of Objects and Methods for manipulating that structure.

BackgroundWhen a markup document is parsed by a browser, it converts the document in a tree structure called the document object model, or DOM. This model can then be used to access and manipulate existing elements in the document, and create new ones, an essential set of activities when creating dynamic page functionality.
The DOM is being worked on by the Web Applications Working Group; visit their mailing lists for discussion, and contribution of ideas.
