Re: DOM access via javscript object model

This question is entirely off-topic for this mailing list. You
would be better to post this question to the javascript newsgroup
comp.lang.javascript.

The purpose of this mailing list is described as follows [1]:
  
  This is the public mailing list for technical discussion among those
  interested in  enhancing the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) or
  building systems that support HTML. It is explicitly intended for 
  the collaborative design of new systems, software, protocols, and 
  documentation which may be useful to the HTML developer community [1].
