Current DOM and implementations are incomplete and inconsistent but illustrate the basic ideas
Layering multiple pages in a single window (remember we use layers to refer to any manipulatable container of HTML)
Navigating through pages: we did this by just choosing particular layers but one can loop over layers and/or descend through hierarchy of layers
Event Capturing (user event handlers)
Setting properties of layers which is done in a way that is based on style sheets.
Can expect to be of growing importance and can effectively get started today
Based on Goodman's book, we can develop a general library which can illustrate you from browser changes and from the new W3C DOM
