Eliminated calls to setAttributeNS(ns, name, null) (2.81 KB, patch)

Description Curt Arnold 2004-01-08 11:38:01 UTC 
documentadoptnode26, 27 and maybe many more tests call setAttributeNS with a 
null for the value parameter.  The spec does not require that implementations 
treat that as an empty string as Xerces-J does, they could through an 
implementation exception which would cause these tests to fail.  I will need 
to survey the tests by running them against a hacked version of Xerces to 
identify call the tests affected by this issue.
