Document objects

class type document = object ... end
val document : document Js.t

val getElementById_opt : string -> element Js.t option

getElementById_opt id returns the element with the id id in the current document. It returns None if there are no such element

val getElementById_exn : string -> element Js.t

getElementById_exn id returns the element with the id id in the current document. It raises if there are no such element

val getElementById_coerce : string -> (element Js.t -> 'a Js.opt) -> 'a option

getElementById_coerce id coerce returns the element with the id id in the current document and attempt to coerce it using the provided coerce function. It returns None if there are no such element or if the coerce function returns Js.none. Typical usage is the following:

match Dom_html.getElementById_coerce "myinput" Dom_html.CoerceTo.input with
| None -> ..
| Some input -> ..
val getElementById : string -> element Js.t

getElementById id returns the element with the id id in the current document. It raises Not_found if there are no such element

HTMLElement

type timeout_id_safe
val setTimeout : (unit -> unit) -> float -> timeout_id_safe

Same as Dom_html.window##setTimeout cb ms but prevents overflow with delay greater than 24 days.

val clearTimeout : timeout_id_safe -> unit
val js_array_of_collection : element collection Js.t -> element Js.t Js.js_array Js.t

Convert a Dom_html.collection to a Js array

Deprecated function.

val _requestAnimationFrame : (unit -> unit) Js.callback -> unit

Call the appropriate requestAnimationFrame method variant (depending on the navigator), or sleep for a short amount of time when there no such method is provided. We currently prefix the function name with as underscore as the interface of this function is not completely standardized yet. Thus, we leave the room to a function with a possibly refined type.

This function is deprecated. Use the requestAnimationFrame of the window object instead.
