{{ ApiRef("DOM") }}

The DOMImplementation interface represents an object providing methods which are not dependent on any particular document. Such an object is returned by the {{domxref("Document.implementation")}} property.

Property

This interface has no specific property and doesn't inherit any.

Instance methods

No inherited method.

  • {{domxref("DOMImplementation.createDocument()")}}
    • : Creates and returns an {{domxref("XMLDocument")}}.
  • {{domxref("DOMImplementation.createDocumentType()")}}
    • : Creates and returns a {{domxref("DocumentType")}}.
  • {{domxref("DOMImplementation.createHTMLDocument()")}}
    • : Creates and returns an HTML {{domxref("Document")}}.
  • {{domxref("DOMImplementation.hasFeature()")}} {{Deprecated_Inline}}
    • : Returns a boolean value indicating if a given feature is supported or not. This function is unreliable and kept for compatibility purpose alone: except for SVG-related queries, it always returns true. Old browsers are very inconsistent in their behavior.
