Document Object Model

Document Object Model

Web pages typically consist of graphics and text written in HTML. Web pages may also use other scripted languages such as Java, JavaScript, Common Gateway Interface (CGI), and Visual Basic script. To view the HTML source code for a Web page, right-click the Web page, and then click View Source.

Quickest provides direct access to the Internet Explorer's Document Object Model (DOM) through which you can access the HTML tags directly. Access to the DOM is performed using the .Object notation. With DOM, QTP can access the Source of a Webpage.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 
Example:

1. Launch URL "http://www.mortgagecalculator.org/"
