Er, which IE?
javascript:document.body.appendChild(document.createElement('repeat'));a="<xmp>"+document.documentElement.innerHTML+"</xmp>"
shows the repeat elements to me.

Seen as (by how I read the process) the spec cannot reach a mature
stable level until there are native implementations, why should we
bother with this restriction? Why not do it properly rather than have
a half assed load of methods duplicating nothing that isn't already
done in script - no-one will be able to use the specification in a
commercial environment until the spec is mature, why not leave the
proof of concept scripting to be done on a good useful specification?
Jim.
