Understanding the Document Object Model (DOM)

Tags: #DOM #WebDevelopment #JavaScript #HTML

The Document Object Model (DOM) is a programming interface for web documents. It represents the structure of a document as a tree of objects. Each object corresponds to a part of the document, such as an element or attribute. JavaScript can interact with the DOM to manipulate the document structure, style, and content. The DOM is not only used for HTML documents but is also applicable to XML documents. Understanding the DOM is crucial for client-side web development.
