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>
    <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() {
            let doc = document.getElementById("head");
            doc.style.color = "green";
        }
    </script>
</body>
