Assuming you want to have HTML Document within IE following should
work from the command line.

>>> from win32com.client import Dispatch
>>> ie = Dispatch("InternetExplorer.Application")
>>> ie.Visible = True
>>> ie.Navigate('about:blank')
>>> doc = ie.Document
>>> doc.bgColor = "pink"

I would also recommend running Tools->COM Makepy utility from Pythowin
on Microsoft Internet Controls (for Internet Explorer)
and Microsoft HTML Object Library (for DHTML Document)
