9.2.0# Overview
The API for this module is based on the W3C DOM specification.
Android and iOS implement the DOM Level 2 (opens new window) specification with some non-standard extensions, which are documented in the appropriate places.
Both iOS and Android lack DTD support.
# Properties
# apiName READONLY
3.2.0 3.2.0 9.2.0The name of the API that this proxy corresponds to.
The value of this property is the fully qualified name of the API. For example, Titanium.UI.Button
returns Ti.UI.Button.
# bubbleParent
3.0.0 3.0.0 9.2.0Indicates if the proxy will bubble an event to its parent.
Some proxies (most commonly views) have a relationship to other proxies, often established by the add() method. For example, for a button added to a window, a click event on the button would bubble up to the window. Other common parents are table sections to their rows, table views to their sections, and scrollable views to their views. Set this property to false to disable the bubbling to the proxy's parent.
Default: true
# lifecycleContainer
3.6.0The Window or TabGroup whose Activity lifecycle should be triggered on the proxy.
If this property is set to a Window or TabGroup, then the corresponding Activity lifecycle event callbacks will also be called on the proxy. Proxies that require the activity lifecycle will need this property set to the appropriate containing Window or TabGroup.
# Methods
# addEventListener

Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |

callback | Callback<Titanium.Event> | Callback function to invoke when the event is fired. |
Returns
- Type
- void
# applyProperties
3.0.0 3.0.0 9.2.0Applies the properties to the proxy.
Properties are supplied as a dictionary. Each key-value pair in the object is applied to the proxy such that myproxy[key] = value.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
props | Dictionary | A dictionary of properties to apply. |
Returns
- Type
- void
# fireEvent
0.9 0.9 9.2.0Fires a synthesized event to any registered listeners.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |

# parseString
0.9 0.9 9.2.0Parses an XML string into a Titanium.XML.Document object.
Throws an exception if the string can't be parsed into a valid document.

Returns
# removeEventListener
0.9 0.9 9.2.0Removes the specified callback as an event listener for the named event.
Multiple listeners can be registered for the same event, so the
callback parameter is used to determine which listener to remove.
When adding a listener, you must save a reference to the callback function in order to remove the listener later:
var listener = function() { Ti.API.info("Event listener called."); }
window.addEventListener('click', listener);
To remove the listener, pass in a reference to the callback function:
window.removeEventListener('click', listener);
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
name | String | Name of the event. |
callback | Callback<Titanium.Event> | Callback function to remove. Must be the same function passed to |
