public interface IHTMLElement

Represents a HTML tag for an event.

This class represents a HTML tag for element events during parsing. The element has the following properties:

• Name : the name of the tag. If the underlying document is xhtml, the name of an element is the Qualified Name as defined in XML Namespaces . So, namespace prefixes will be part of the element name.
• Length : the number of characters this element has. Note that angular brackets are part of the element, so '<tag>' has length 5.
