Interface Element

All Superinterfaces:

Content, Identity, Markup

All Known Implementing Classes:

Node, Table, Tbody, Td, Tr

public interface Element
extends Markup, Identity

An element in the Document Object Model (DOM) having attributes, text and children. It provides methods to traverse the parent and children and to get access to its attributes. Due to a lot of flaws in DOM API specifications and implementations, those methods are no fun to use. jQuery provides a wrapper around those elements to help interacting with the DOM. But often enough you will be working directly with DOM elements, or see methods that (also) accept DOM elements as arguments.
