Hi,

May be I'm missing something but in DOM Range, chapter 8.2 you write :

"The boundary-points of a Range must have a common ancestor container
which is either a Document, DocumentFragment or Attr node."

and in methods description section, I can read : 

setStart

- RangeException :

INVALID_NODE_TYPE_ERR: Raised if refNode or an ancestor of refNode is
an Attr, Entity, Notation, or DocumentType node.

so, the question is : Attr can be a Range ancestor or not ?

Thierry.
