document.images is of type HTMLCollection:
<http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/WD-DOM-Level-1-20000929/level-one-html.html#ID-75
708506>
whereas the return value of document.getElementsByTagName() is of type
NodeList:
<http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/WD-DOM-Level-1-20000929/level-one-core.html#ID-53
6297177>.
Both are live, so in practice there isn't much to choose between them; the
main difference is that the HTMLCollection supports the "item" and
"namedItem" methods, while the nodeList only supports "item".

Nick.
