NAME

HTML::DOM::Element::Body - A Perl class for representing 'body' elements in an HTML DOM tree

SYNOPSIS

  use HTML::DOM;
  $doc = HTML::DOM->new;
  $elem = $doc->createElement('body');

  $elem->bgColor('white'); # set attribute
  $elem->background;       # get attribute
  $elem->tagName;
  # etc

DESCRIPTION

This class implements the 'body' element in an HTML::DOM tree. It implements the HTMLBodyElement DOM interface and inherits from HTML::DOM::Element (q.v.).

METHODS

In addition to those inherited from HTML::DOM::Element and its superclasses, this class implements the following DOM methods:

background
bgColor
text

Each of these returns the corresponding HTML attribute. If you pass an argument, it will become the new value of the attribute, and the old value will be returned.

It also overrides HTML::DOM::EventTarget's event_handler method to delegate event handlers associated with HTML or DOM attributes with the window object (more precisely, whatever object is assigned to the document's event_parent) instead of the body element.
