/**
 * @fileoverview Utilities for manipulating the browser's Document Object Model
 * Inspiration taken *heavily* from mochikit (http://mochikit.com/).
 *
 * If you want to do extensive DOM building you can create local aliases,
 * such as:<br>
 * var $DIV = goog.bind(goog.dom.createDom, goog.dom, 'div');<br>
 * var $A = goog.bind(goog.dom.createDom, goog.dom, 'a');<br>
 * var $TABLE = goog.bind(goog.dom.createDom, goog.dom, 'table');<br>
 *
 * You can use {@link goog.dom.DomHelper} to create new dom helpers that refer
 * to a different document object.  This is useful if you are working with
 * frames or multiple windows.
 *
