Question

Extending Dreamweaver DOM Object

Hi all, I'm looking for a way to extend the Dreamweaver DOM object with
custom functions.
In this case I need to backport the copyAssets function
http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/9.0_API/dwr_pagecontent_cn_088.html
for earlier versions of dreamweaver and reroute calls to an existing of
custom implementation.

My idea is to create a Startup Item that uses the dom object as prototype
and extends or overrides certain functions, but then: how should I tell
dreamweaver to use that object instead of the normal DOM?

I'd like to back-port certain functions added to the DOM object in later
versions of dreamweaver, for example the copyAssets function.
I'd like to do this in a way that does not require changing files that
expect this function to be there.

I'm still looking for the preferred/recommended way of doing this,
does anyone have a bright idea?
