Document Object Model
From Svg wiki
[edit]
SVG DOM
SVG has its own Document Object Model (DOM), separate from any HTML DOM into which it may be embedded (if any). This allows for platform- and language-independent modifications of the image and/or data of the SVG file.
The SVG Specification has described the SVG DOM at http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-SVG-20010904/svgdom.html. For an indexed list of specific interfaces, see http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-SVG-20010904/indexlist.html (under "DOM Interfaces").

Other DOM Specifications
The W3C DOM specifications of interest for SVG are:
- DOM Level 1 - http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-DOM-Level-1/
- DOM Level 2 (Core) - http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/
With these as the foundation, the SVG DOM is specified.
