The DOM header object is used to represent the HTML <header> element. The header element can be accessed by the getElementById() method.

Syntax: 

document.getElementById("id"); 

Where ‘id’ is the ID assigned to the header tag.
 

Example-1: In the below program the header element is accessed and the color of the text inside the header element is changed. 

html




<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<center>
        <h1 style = "color:green;" >
          GeeksForGeeks
        </h1>
 
        <h2>DOM header Object</h2>
 
        <article>
          <header id="head">
               
<p>A computer science portal for geeks.</p>
 
          </header>
        </article>
         
        <button onclick="Geeks()">Click Here!</button>
         
        <script>
        function Geeks() {
            var doc = document.getElementById("head");
            doc.style.color = "green";
        }
        </script>
</body>
</html>
