Hi Masi,

The Elements are XML Elements and not DOM Elements.

Reading one of your Documents:

http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-DOM-Level-1/level-one-core.html#ID-5DFED1F0

<Quote>:

1.1.6. Case sensitivity in the DOM
The DOM has many interfaces that imply string matching. HTML processors
generally assume an uppercase (less often, lowercase) normalization of names
for such things as elements, while XML is explicitly case sensitive. For the
purposes of the DOM, string matching takes place on a character code by
character code basis, on the 16 bit value of a DOMString. As such, the DOM
assumes that any normalizations will take place in the processor, before the
DOM structures are built.

This then raises the issue of exactly what normalizations occur. The W3C
I18N working group is in the process of defining exactly which
normalizations are necessary for applications implementing the DOM.

If i understand this correct: They are still discussing this or?

Anyway this discussion is rather OT.
