The DOM documents specify an ECMAScript binding, among other things.
This is a posh way of saying that your program can access the current
document using familiar ECMAScript syntax in the source file, as in
a.b and a.c().

Thus when I wrote "use most of the syntax" I was including DOM access
and anything similar.

I know Thomas says that DOM objects are not part of any language, but
then he goes very quiet when you ask about Date objects, and Function
objects.
