>Those are required to be readonly NamedNodeMap objects. See the DOM L1 >spec as regards the definitions of those attributes. The phrase is >"cannot be altered in any way". What you suggest is nonconformant. Hmm. True. I keep forgetting that. >Like I said, the RFE is **for DOM L2** I think the decision has been made to address DTD support in Level 3, and since that will cover your RFE -- and since it's _long_ after Last Call for Level 2 -- I think you'll have to wait. Default attributes have the same problem; we specified their read behavior but there's still no way to build the data structures required to support them. I wanted DTD support in Level 1, and Level 2. Didn't happen. We can try to expedite Level 3... ______________________________________ Joe Kesselman / IBM Research
