Build 3/29/99 WinNT,MacPPC - Use HTML below - DOM reports that it sees [objectHTMLElement] instead of [objectHTMLBlockquoteElement] as it seems it should. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD><TITLE>test</TITLE></HEAD> <BODY> <BLOCKQUOTE> Any text here. </BLOCKQUOTE> <SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript"> var oList=document.firstChild.childNodes.item(1).childNodes.item(1) document.write(oList); </SCRIPT> </BODY> </HTML>

Didn't intend to leave Priority at P3, moving to P1 as this is blocking testing.

Actually it should return an element of type HTMLQuoteElement (according to the DOM Level 1 Errata). Fixed with my checkin on 4/13.

Afraid this is still not fixed. Build 1999-06-16-M6 DOM still returns "[object HTMLElement]" instead of "[object HTMLQuoteElement]" (also, please send me the link to the info where you are finding the reference to HTMLQuoteElement. At this URL: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-DOM-Level-1/level-one-html.html I am finding both "Interface HTMLBlockquoteElement" and "Interface HTMLQuoteElement", but perhaps I am reading it wrong. Thanks.)

This is cross-platform code. I don't know how it could fail on a specific platform unless there's something wrong with DLL/shared library management. My guess is that you have an old build.
Target Milestone: M6
janc, could you check this on latest build please?
