DESCRIPTION

40       This is just a subclass of HTML::Element.  It works basically the same
41       as HTML::Element, except that tagnames and attribute names aren't
42       forced to lowercase, as they are in HTML::Element.
43
44       HTML::Element describes everything you can do with this class.
45

CAVEATS

47       Has currently no handling of namespaces.
