This appendix contains the complete OMG IDL for the Level 1 Document Object Model definitions. The definitions are divided into Core and HTML.
The IDL files are also available as: http://www.w3.org/TR/1998/REC-DOM-Level-1-19981001/idl.zip
This section contains the OMG IDL definitions for the interfaces in the Core Document Object Model specification, including the extended (XML) interfaces.
