<h2 id='abstract'>Abstract</h2>
<div class='abstract'>
<p>This specification defines the Document Object Model Level 2
Core, a platform- and language-neutral interface that allows
programs and scripts to dynamically access and update the content
and structure of documents. The Document Object Model Level 2 Core
builds on the Document Object Model Level 1 Core.</p>
<p>The DOM Level 2 Core is made of a set of core interfaces to
create and manipulate the structure and contents of a document. The
Core also contains specialized interfaces dedicated to XML.</p>
</div>
<p>
This specification defines the Document Object Model Core Level
3, a platform- and language-neutral interface that allows
programs and scripts to dynamically access and update the
content, structure and style of documents. The Document Object
Model Core Level 3 builds on the Document Object Model Core
Level 2 [<a class='noxref' href='references.html#DOM2Core'>DOM Level 2 Core</a>].
</p><p>
This version enhances DOM Level 2 Core by completing the mapping
between DOM and the XML Information Set [<a class='noxref' href='references.html#InfoSet'>XML Information Set</a>],
including the support for XML Base [<a class='noxref' href='references.html#XMLBase'>XML Base</a>],
adding the ability to attach user information to DOM Nodes or to
bootstrap a DOM implementation, providing mechanisms to resolve
namespace prefixes or to manipulate "ID" attributes, giving to type
information, etc.
