/**
 * By far the vast majority of objects (apart from text) that authors
 * encounter when traversing a document are <code>DOMElement</code> nodes.
 *
 * Assume the following XML document:&lt;elementExample id="demo"&gt;
 * &lt;subelement1/&gt;
 * &lt;subelement2&gt;&lt;subsubelement/&gt;&lt;/subelement2&gt;
 * &lt;/elementExample&gt;
 * <p>When represented using DOM, the top node is an <code>DOMElement</code> node
 * for "elementExample", which contains two child <code>DOMElement</code> nodes,
 * one for "subelement1" and one for "subelement2". "subelement1" contains no
 * child nodes.
 * <p>Elements may have attributes associated with them; since the
 * <code>DOMElement</code> interface inherits from <code>DOMNode</code>, the generic
 *  <code>DOMNode</code> interface method <code>getAttributes</code> may be used
 * to retrieve the set of all attributes for an element.  There are methods on
 *  the <code>DOMElement</code> interface to retrieve either an <code>DOMAttr</code>
 *  object by name or an attribute value by name. In XML, where an attribute
 * value may contain entity references, an <code>DOMAttr</code> object should be
 * retrieved to examine the possibly fairly complex sub-tree representing the
 * attribute value. On the other hand, in HTML, where all attributes have
 * simple string values, methods to directly access an attribute value can
 * safely be used as a convenience.
