What sort of nonsense is that?
That's just plain ignorant.

Hardly.

That's silly for obvious reasons.
And that is broken in many UA's (will return the body element.) The
rest is gibberish. Don't post "examples" like this here.

Actually, I misread that part. What I was trying to say is that
sometimes "this" is the body element when using window.onload (or
this.onload.) So never do this:
window.onload = function() {
var doc = this.document; // BAD
};
Do this:
var WIN = this.window;
win.onload = function() {
var doc = WIN.document;
};
If the script is intended to run in environments other than browsers,
you might do:
var GLOBAL = this.window || this;
GLOBAL.onload = function() {
var doc = GLOBAL.document;
};
And, of course, it makes more sense to use the onload attribute of the
body. That is the one bit of script that you do not want to separate
from the markup.

No need to assume anything. If it does not support a global onload
property, nothing will happen. If there is no document:
var GLOBAL = this.window || this;
GLOBAL.onload = function() {
var doc = GLOBAL.document;
if (doc) {
if (GLOBAL.alert) { // Simplified--use isHostMethod
GLOBAL.alert('I have a document and I can talk.');
if (GLOBAL.setTimeout) {
GLOBAL.alert('I can set a timer too.');
}
}
}
};

window.top.document.body.innerHTML= '<h1>
</h1>';

That's why there are two examples. If you are writing for browsers
only, then the first one is slightly more efficient.
Methods like setTimeout and alert are not part of the DOM. As for a
document, I don't know what sort of agent would implement a DOM
without a window object, but it doesn't mean there aren't any.
Imagine a console spell checker or validation tool.

If it is going to be available at all, it will be available during the
load event.
Code like that is incompetent and the idea that it would take 30 lines
to make it competent is ridiculous.
var GLOBAL = this.window || this;
WIN.onload = function() {
var body, doc = GLOBAL.document;
if (doc) {
body = doc.body;
if (body && typeof body.innerHTML == 'string') {
body.innerHTML = '<h1>Was that so hard?</h1>';
}
}
};

GLOBAL.onload obviously.
D
David Mark
And I see Jorge's "example" is meant for frames.
var GLOBAL = this.window || this;
GLOBAL.onload = function() {
var body, doc = (GLOBAL.top || GLOBAL).document;
if (doc) {
body = doc.body;
if (body && typeof body.innerHTML == 'string') {
body.innerHTML = '<h1>Was that so hard?</h1>';
}
}
};

David Mark
Why should the mind boggle at that?
No. Jorge posted another bad example and your reply didn't help
matters.
D
David Mark
Well, it isn't hard to miss. The point is that others might be
similarly challenged by your post.

I was only joking.

I don't follow.
Good enough for you, maybe.
Well, I have only referred to *one paragraph* of *one document* of the
resource you want to recommend as reference. It contained 5 errors and
omissions so far. I leave it to you to compute the percentage of false or
misleading information, knowing of other examples that contain not less
errors and omissions, and that compared that to the reference material
I use and recommend the number of inaccuracies are quite high.
You may invent terminology as you wish, but don't expect it to be
universally understood.
The sad thing about it is that you are in no position to make such an
assessment. Ignorance must be bliss.

Finally, what is this DOM ?
I thought it was a part added to JS 1.2 (or less or more ?).
JS has always been based on Objects.
DOM whom I think is a representation of html document tree,
image ignored by precedent versions of JS,
how can say that anterior features are part of the DOM ?
That's flight! theft of property!

How about "not at all?" Is that clearer?
