The attributes are exposed as properties for compatibility with DOM Level 0. This usage is deprecated because it can not be generalized to all possible attribute names, as is required both for XML and potentially for future versions of HTML. We recommend the use of generic methods on the core Element interface for setting, getting and removing attributes. <http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/WD-DOM-Level-1-20000929/level-one-html.html#ID-64 2250288> -----Original Message----- From: Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis [mailto:bhawkeslewis@googlemail.com] Sent: Wednesday, October 01, 2008 12:42 PM To: Kristof Zelechovski Cc: 'Garrett Smith'; whatwg at whatwg.org Subject: Re: [whatwg] Placeholder option for text input boxes Kristof Zelechovski wrote: > DOM properties are not becoming obsolete; accessing attributes by properties > is.
