- Classes in org.w3c.dom used by javax.imageio.metadata
  Class and Description
  Attr The `Attr` interface represents an attribute in an `Element` object.
  Document The `Document` interface represents the entire HTML or XML document.
  DOMException DOM operations only raise exceptions in "exceptional" circumstances, i.e., when an operation is impossible to perform (either for logical reasons, because data is lost, or because the implementation has become unstable).
  Element The `Element` interface represents an element in an HTML or XML document.
  NamedNodeMap Objects implementing the `NamedNodeMap` interface are used to represent collections of nodes that can be accessed by name.
  Node The `Node` interface is the primary datatype for the entire Document Object Model.
  NodeList The `NodeList` interface provides the abstraction of an ordered collection of nodes, without defining or constraining how this collection is implemented.
  TypeInfo The `TypeInfo` interface represents a type referenced from `Element` or `Attr` nodes, specified in the schemas associated with the document.
  UserDataHandler When associating an object to a key on a node using `Node.setUserData()` the application can provide a handler that gets called when the node the object is associated to is being cloned, imported, or renamed.
