The HTMLDocument interface, which may be accessed through the Window.HTMLDocument property, extends the Window.HTMLDocument property to include methods and properties that are specific to HTML documents.
For the purposes of web development, you can generally think of HTMLDocument as an alias for Document, upon which HTMLDocument is based. You can find documentation for the members of HTMLDocument under the Document interface.
