JavaScript and XPages reference
This reference describes the JavaScript™ language elements, Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), and other artifacts that you need to create scripts, plus the XPages simple actions.
- JavaScript™ language elements (JavaScript)
  The JavaScript™ language elements are based on the ECMAScript Language Specification Standard ECMA-262 (see http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/standards/Ecma-262.htm). The JavaScript described here applies to the server-side interpreter. Client-side scripts are interpreted by the browser.
- Simple actions (JavaScript)
  A simple action performs a pre-programmed activity that can be modified by arguments.
- Global objects and functions (JavaScript™)
  Global objects provide entry points to server-side scripts. Entering the name of a global object instantiates it.

  Represents a document in XML Document Object Model format.
  - DOMAttr (JavaScript)
    Represents an attribute of an element.
  - DOMCDATASection (JavaScript)

  - DOMElement (JavaScript)
    Represents an element in a document.
  - DOMEntity (JavaScript)
    Represents an entity, parsed or not, in a document.
  - DOMEntityReference (JavaScript)
    Represents a reference to an entity.
  - DOMException (JavaScript)
  - DOMImplementation (JavaScript)
    Provides methods for operations independent of an instance of the document object model.
  - DOMNamedNodeMap (JavaScript)
    Represent a collection of nodes.
    - getLength (DOMNamedNodeMap - JavaScript)
      Gets the number of nodes in the map.
    - getNamedItem (DOMNamedNodeMap - JavaScript)
      Gets a node by name.
    - getNamedItemNS (DOMNamedNodeMap - JavaScript)
      Gets a node by namespace and name.
    - item (DOMNamedNodeMap - JavaScript)
      Gets the node at a specified index.
    - removeNamedItem (DOMNamedNodeMap - JavaScript)
      Removes a node by name.
    - removeNamedItemNS (DOMNamedNodeMap - JavaScript)
      Removes a node specified by namespace and name.
    - setNamedItem (DOMNamedNodeMap - JavaScript)
      Adds a node using its node name attribute.
    - setNamedItemNS (DOMNamedNodeMap - JavaScript)
      Adds a node using its namespace URI and local name.
  - DOMNode (JavaScript)
    Represents a node in the Document Object Model.
  - DOMNodeList (JavaScript)
    Represents an ordered collection of nodes.

    Represents a namespace context.
  - NamespaceContextImpl (JavaScript)
    Manipulates a namespace context.
- Domino®
  This library provides access to the IBM® Domino® back-end.
- Runtime (JavaScript)
  The Runtime library contains classes that provide useful methods for globalization.
- Standard (JavaScript)
  The Standard library contains classes for manipulating data of different types and performing common operations.
- XSP (JavaScript™)
  The XSP library contains classes that access the browser context.
