We've looked at this several times. Last time we discussed it, the consensus seemed to be that per-operation concurrency was not particularly useful -- too much overhead for too little gain. Many logical operations on a document require an extended series of DOM operatations, so any concurrency control would really want to operate at that level. It's unclear that putting explicit transaction locking featues into the DOM would really be any easier to use or more efficient than implementing them in the application code. This question is still on our Open Issues list and may -- or may not -- be addressed in a future version of the DOM. ______________________________________ Joe Kesselman / IBM Research
