Hello, I haven't seen a reply to Kent's questions about DocumentType and NodeType. I'm confused about these same issues as well. Also, I'm assuming (perhaps incorrectly) that Attribute extends Node. If that is so, can't AttributeList extend NodeList/Collection? If Attribute does *not* extend Node then what is the meaning of Element.getAttributes() (which returns a NodeIterator) ? Should it return an AttributeList instead ? Any idea when the next working draft is due? Thanks, Claude Zervas, UTL Co, Seattle ------------------------------------------------------------------ Kent Tamura wrote: Document.documentType is Node. But DocumentType doesn't inherit Node. If DocumentType is Node, what does an Iterator returned by DocumentType.getChildNodes() consist of? An internal subset or an external subset? DocumentType has no methods to get NodeIterator of an internal subset / an external subset / entities / notations / element definitions. What node does the getNextSibling() method of child nodes in DocumentType return? -- TAMURA Kent @ Tokyo Research Laboratory, IBM Japan
