Ok, that is contrary to my experiments :) See below for source of that. > I am not sure where within DOM one would expect the text of a .js (or > .es) file to actually appear, which is why I was experimenting with > various DOM explorations here.

The question is whether this is correct in Firefox or not, is the name given to getAttribute a localName or a qualifiedName? The DOM specs are not very clear about that subject. And the same thing goes for setAttribute.
