Personal reaction: If all the other browsers really are wrong... They're still wrong, and we should be beating them up and trying to get them to fix it rather than endorsing this error. But I have a bit of trouble believing this assertion. If folks want to distinguish between empty attribute and absent attribute, they should be using getAttributeNode(), which *does* return null for an empty node. Are you sure you aren't confusing these two calls, or working in a language binding that masks the difference between null and empty string? ______________________________________ Joe Kesselman, IBM Next-Generation Web Technologies: XML, XSL and more.
