This appendix contains the complete OMG IDL for the Level 1 Document Object Model definitions. The definitions are divided into Core, HTML.
The IDL files are also available as: http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/WD-DOM-Level-1-20000929/idl.zip
Unfortunately the OMG IDL for the Document Object Model HTML is not
compliant because of problems in the validator that was used to validate
Level 1. The readOnly attribute on the
HTMLInputElement and HTMLTextAreaElement
interfaces, as well as the object attribute on the
HTMLAppletElement interface, are not compliant with OMG IDL
2.2.
This section contains the OMG IDL definitions for the interfaces in the Core Document Object Model specification, including the extended (XML) interfaces.
