						<p>The W3C DOM <span class="literal">MutationEvent</span> object is an abstract
object that contains the properties and methods shared by every
instance of a W3C DOM event that concerns itself with the
modification of the document tree. This object inherits
characteristics from the W3C DOM <span class="literal">Event</span>. The
properties (information such as references to the node affected by
the change) and methods of this object are blended into the directly
scripted <span class="literal">event</span> object. See the discussion of the
<span class="literal">event</span> object earlier in this chapter for specific
property and method support for this object and how these items are
inherited by more specific event types.
