Default namespaces don't work in XML, i.e., if you specify a namespace in an enclosing tag, the child tags don't inherit the namespace. <xul xmlns:xul="http://www.mozilla.org/xul"> <tree> <===== Should belong to the XUL namespace by default <treeitem> <===== Should belong to the XUL namespace by default </treeitem> </tree> </xul> See section 5.2 of the namespace recommendation for complete details on how default namespaces should work.

I believe that this was fixed by Vidur on Friday.

Reopening. Attributes aren't properly defaulting to the appropriate namespace, e.g., if I say: <window xmlns:xul="http://blahblahblha"> <tree open="true"> </window> The open attribute above isn't part of the XUL namespace (as it should be), and so a GetAttribute using the XUL namespace fails. This isn't a big deal, since we can always explicitly qualify all attributes and tags, but it should be fixed eventually.

Fixed by latest update to parser.

david -- can you please verify this -- we do not have the ability to do at this time.

I should also have added - "or provide a test case for us to use"

It's fixed.
