DOM operations only raise exceptions in "exceptional" circumstances, i.e.,
when an operation is impossible to perform (either for logical reasons,
because data is lost, or because the implementation has become unstable).
In general, DOM methods return specific error values in ordinary
processing situations, such as out-of-bound errors when using
NodeList.
Implementations should raise other exceptions under other circumstances.
For example, implementations should raise an implementation-dependent
exception if a null argument is passed when null
was not expected.
Some languages and object systems do not support the concept of exceptions. For such systems, error conditions may be indicated using native error reporting mechanisms. For some bindings, for example, methods may return error codes similar to those listed in the corresponding method descriptions.

If the specified range of text does not fit into a
DOMString.
If any Node is inserted somewhere it doesn't belong.
If index or size is negative, or greater than the allowed value.
If an attempt is made to add an attribute that is already in use elsewhere.
If a parameter or an operation is not supported by the underlying object.
If an invalid or illegal character is specified, such as in an XML name.
If an attempt is made to modify the type of the underlying object.
If an attempt is made to use an object that is not, or is no longer, usable.
If an attempt is made to create or change an object in a way which is incorrect with regard to namespaces.
If an attempt is made to reference a Node in a context
where it does not exist.
If the implementation does not support the requested type of object or operation.
If data is specified for a Node which does not support
data.
If an attempt is made to modify an object where modifications are not allowed.
If an invalid or illegal string is specified.
If the type of an object is incompatible with the expected type of the parameter associated to the object.
If a call to a method such as insertBefore or
removeChild would make the Node invalid
with respect to "partial validity", this exception would be raised
and the operation would not be done. This code is used in [DOM Level 3 Validation]
. Refer to this specification for further information.
If a Node is used in a different document than the one
that created it (that doesn't support it).
