Creates the HTML element specified by the tag name.
This is similar to Document.createElement.
tag
should be a valid HTML tag name. If tag
is an unknown tag then
this will create an UnknownElement.
var divElement = new Element.tag('div');
print(divElement is DivElement); // 'true'
var myElement = new Element.tag('unknownTag');
print(myElement is UnknownElement); // 'true'
For standard elements it is more preferable to use the type constructors:
var element = new DivElement();
