Namespace: DOM
Detailed Description
An HTMLCollection is a list of nodes. An individual
node may be accessed by either ordinal index or the node's
name or id attributes. Note: Collections in
the HTML DOM are assumed to be live meaning that they are
automatically updated when the underlying document is changed.

id attribute. If it doesn't find one, it then searches
for a Node with a matching name
attribute, but only on those elements that are allowed a name
attribute.
- Parameters:
-
| name | The name of the Node to be fetched.

id attribute whose value corresponds to the
specified string. Upon failure (e.g., no node with this name
exists), returns null .
