> I don't think the liveness requirement is described very carefully; It's defined very carefully, though tersely. A somewhat more readable description is available at http://www.w3.org/DOM/faq.html#nodelist >if I have a node that I remove from the tree, and then add to another >location, should the node be included in any NodeList objects returned >from getElementsByTagName()? The NodeList should always look as it would if you had just requested it. When you remove the node, it drops out of the NodeList. When you insert it, it will be inserted into the NodeList IF the insertiion point is within the subtree of the node on which getElementsByTagName() was issued. Note that the location where it's inserted may be different from where it was removed, since the NodeList displays the nodes in document order. ______________________________________ Joe Kesselman / IBM Research
