The documentElement property isn't proprietary. It's defined in the W3C DOM.
documentElement of type Element, readonly
This is a convenience attribute that allows direct access to the
child node that is the root element of the document. For HTML
documents, this is the element with the tagName "HTML".

When in "Standards" mode, IE treats the HTML element as the canvas (not
BODY), so various dimension-related properties should be read from there.
