I suggest to look demo/dom/dom_from_html.py. Building a DOM tree from
an HTML document really isn't more than

from xml.dom.ext.reader import HtmlLib
from xml.dom import ext
reader = HtmlLib.Reader()
dom_object = reader.fromUri(fileName)

Then you get all the DOM interfaces, including the ones defined only
for HTML.
