Remarks

Two Silverlight classes can be used to access and manipulate the DOM: HtmlPage and HtmlDocument.

When the Silverlight plug-in's enableHtmlAccess property is set to false, any attempt to use the HtmlPage class fails with a NotSupportedException stating that the feature is disabled.

For information about the enableHtmlAccess property, see Security Settings in HTML Bridge.
