+/**
+	This is an html DOM implementation, started with cloning
+	what the browser offers in Javascript, but going well beyond
+	it in convenience.
+
+	If you can do it in Javascript, you can probably do it with
+	this module.
+
+	And much more.
+
+
+	Note: some of the documentation here writes html with added
+	spaces. That's because ddoc doesn't bother encoding html output,
+	and adding spaces is easier than using LT macros everywhere.
+
+
+	BTW: this file depends on arsd.characterencodings, so help it
+	correctly read files from the internet. You should be able to
+	get characterencodings.d from the same place you got this file.
