     The DOM extension is the replacement for the domxml extension from PHP 4. The extension still contains
     many old functions, but they should no longer be used. In particular, functions 
     that are not object-oriented should be avoided.

    <para>
     The extension allows you to operate on an XML document with the DOM API.

     The API of the module follows the DOM Level 2 standard as closely
     as possible. Consequently, the API is fully object-oriented.
     It is a good idea to have the DOM standard available when
     using this module.
    </para>
    <para>
     This module defines a number of classes, which are listed -
     including their
     method - in the following tables. Classes with an equivalent in the
     DOM standard are named DOMxxx.
