JavaScript DOM Manipulation

Learn how to manipulate the DOM with JavaScript

What is the DOM?

The Document Object Model (DOM) is a programming interface for HTML and XML documents. It represents the structure of a document as a tree of objects.

Accessing Elements

You can access DOM elements using methods like getElementById, querySelector, and getElementsByClassName.

Example: Changing Text


document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = "Hello, DOM!";
        

Event Handling

JavaScript allows you to handle user interactions like clicks, mouse movements, and keyboard input using event listeners.

Example: Button Click


document.getElementById("myButton").addEventListener("click", function() {
    alert("Button clicked!");
});
        

Dynamic Content

You can dynamically add, remove, or modify elements in the DOM using JavaScript. This is useful for creating interactive web pages.

Example: Adding an Element


const newElement = document.createElement("p");
newElement.textContent = "This is a new paragraph.";
document.body.appendChild(newElement);
