Synopsis

All these objects reflect the corresponding HTML phrase elements of the same name. Each of these phrase elements provides a context for an inline sequence of content. Some of these elements are rendered in ways to distinguish themselves from running text. See the HTML element descriptions in Chapter 8 for details. From a scripted standpoint, all phrase element objects share the same set of properties, methods, event handlers, and collections.
