<h2 id='abstract'>Abstract</h2>

<div class='abstract'>
<p>This specification defines the Document Object Model Level 2
Traversal and Range, platform- and language-neutral interfaces that
allow programs and scripts to dynamically traverse and identify a
range of content in a document. The Document Object Model Level 2
Traversal and Range build on the Document Object Model Level 2 Core
[<a class='noxref' href='references.html#DOMCore'>DOM Level 2
Core</a>].</p>

<p>The DOM Level 2 Traversal and Range specification is composed of
two modules. The two modules contain specialized interfaces
dedicated to traversing the document structure and identifying and
manipulating a range in a document.</p>
