+/**
+ * The <code>Element</code> interface represents an element in an HTML or XML
+ * document. Elements may have attributes associated with them; since the
+ * <code>Element</code> interface inherits from <code>Node</code>, the
+ * generic <code>Node</code> interface attribute <code>attributes</code> may
+ * be used to retrieve the set of all attributes for an element. There are
+ * methods on the <code>Element</code> interface to retrieve either an
+ * <code>Attr</code> object by name or an attribute value by name. In XML,
+ * where an attribute value may contain entity references, an
+ * <code>Attr</code> object should be retrieved to examine the possibly
+ * fairly complex sub-tree representing the attribute value. On the other
+ * hand, in HTML, where all attributes have simple string values, methods to
+ * directly access an attribute value can safely be used as a convenience.
+ * <p ><b>Note:</b> In DOM Level 2, the method <code>normalize</code> is
+ * inherited from the <code>Node</code> interface where it was moved.
+ * <p>See also the <a href='http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-DOM-Level-3-Core-20040407'>Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Core Specification</a>.
