Saxon

I've an extension function that receives a W3C DOM Element as a parameter from Saxon, which appears to mostly work, but if I try to import the received Element into another DOM tree, the resulting Element appears to be incomplete. Specifically, there's something odd about the attributes; they appear to be valueless. Specifically, it goes something like this: public static void function(Element e) { ... Element ec = doc.importNode(e, true); ... After this, the following is true: e.getAttribute("someAttr") is "someValue" ec.getAttribute("someAttr") is "" and each item() in getAttributes() has the same getNodeName() but whilst e has sensible values for getNodeValue() ec has "". Using getAttributeNS(null, "someAttr") has similar results, as expected. Is this a small bug in the DOM wrapper code for Saxon, possibly a bug in the DOMImplementation's importNode() (it seems to work between two Documents created in Java, though), or am I simply doing something wrong with the DOM API (again)? Has anyone tried something similar and had this problem? Using SaxonB 8.8 on Java 1.5.0_07, incidentally. -- HH
