this HTML element completely only starting with Version 6, most of
these form controls had some of their properties and methods
available to earlier versions, going all the way back to Version 2.

objects share the same properties, even when the properties
don't necessarily apply (the
<span class="literal">checked</span> property of an <span class="literal">input</span>
element of type text, for example). To reduce potential confusion,
the discussions here for input types limit the properties to those
that apply directly to a specific input type. See the following
individual descriptions for each <span class="literal">input</span> object
type: <span class="literal">button</span>, <span class="literal">checkbox</span>,
<span class="literal">fileUpload</span>, <span class="literal">hidden</span>,
<span class="literal">image</span>, <span class="literal">password</span>,

							<td colspan="2"><p>			A few properties and methods that don't appear here
in the lists of object-specific items are worth highlighting. While
the IE DOM (especially in the Windows versions) ascribes properties
such as <span class="literal">accessKey</span>, <span class="literal">disabled</span>,
and <span class="literal">tabIndex</span> to virtually every HTML element, the
W3C DOM is typically more parsimonious in handing out these
properties to elements. But <span class="literal">input</span> elements are the
right places for these properties, and you'll find
full implementations in Netscape 6, as well as IE 4 or later. The
same goes for the <span class="literal">blur( )</span>, <span class="literal">click(
)</span>, and <span class="literal">focus( )</span> methods, which are
described among the shared items earlier in this chapter.

are shared among all elements in more recent browsers. If your
development must take backward compatibility into account,
it's important to know precisely which input types
recognize each of the long-supported events.
