>From looking at the api I'm guessing that the xmllib ruby bindings can't as of yet insert default attributes as defined in the dtd. i.e. the xmllint command: xmllint test.xml --dtdattr
outputs the test.xml file with all the missing default attributes. Currently our solution is to re parse the output of that command although it would be preferable if the ruby bindings was able to offer a better solution. Is this feature in the woodwork? Although, if there is some other ruby way of handling this, then it would be good to hear it.
