Well, if you're sure that the node is an Element, then you could also do
this:
// assume 'doc' is the containing document
// assume 'node' is the element you want to add the attribute to
Attr att = doc.createAttribute("my_att_name");
att.setValue("my_att_value");
node.appendChild(att);
Are you SURE that this isn't a less elegant solution than:
((Element)node).setAttribute("my_att_name", "my_att_value");
I think the second piece of code is much more to the point.

Hi,
I can see that Elements have a setAttribute method. I have a node (Node n)
and would like to set an attribute. Can I just cast the Node into Element,
or is there a nicer way?
