DOMrakenteesta

DOMrakenteesta refers to the Document Object Model (DOM) structure. The DOM is a programming interface for manipulating HTML, XML, and SVG documents. It represents the page as a tree structure, where each node is an object representing a part of the document, such as an element, attribute, or text. Navigating and modifying this tree allows for dynamic changes to the web page's content, style, and behavior.

In web development, JavaScript commonly interacts with the DOM. Developers can use JavaScript to select elements, change their attributes, add or remove content, and respond to user events. For example, clicking a button might trigger a JavaScript function that finds a specific paragraph element in the DOM and updates its text. The DOM provides a standardized way for scripts to access and manipulate the underlying document, making web pages interactive. Understanding the DOM structure is fundamental for anyone developing for the web, as it forms the basis of how web pages are rendered and how they can be dynamically altered. The hierarchical nature of the DOM, with a root node and branches, is key to its organization and how elements are related to each other.
