<p>Note the use of <code>extends</code> option to specify that the element is being registered as a <a href="#dfn-type-extension">type extension</a> -- that is, this element does not introduce a new tag (like the <a href="#dfn-custom-tag">custom tag</a> elements do), but rather extends an existing element of type <strong>HTMLParagraphElement</strong>. Here's how one could instantiate this element:</p>
<pre><code class="prettyprint">
&lt;p is="x-foo"&gt;Paragraph of amazement&lt;/p&gt;
</code></pre>
Or imperatively, in JavaScript:
<pre><code class="prettyprint">
var foo = document.createElement('p', 'x-foo');
</code></pre>
</div>
<p>Elements with <code>SVGElement</code> prototype deserve a special mention: using <a href="#dfn-custom-tag">custom tag</a> approach results in <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/extend.html#ForeignNamespaces">ignored elements</a> in SVG. Thus, your SVG-based custom elements would almost always be <a href="#dfn-type-extension">type extensions</a>.</p>
