Hi!<br><br>well "javascript:" is not an URL is an URI..<br>the document is not about the name of the technique (JaSiLDBG is the "code name" we decided to use, you are free to name it as you want).<br><br>
the document really is a handbook on how to use the "javascript" URI for debugging web sites "on the fly".. I think that most of the persons that should know how to use "javascript URI" for debugging purposes doesn't know it, that's why we wrote the document.
<br><br>about the attribute/property issue, I think you are right :P there has been a problem when transcribing the document from my notes :P<br><br>Greetz!!<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 2/3/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">

<br>them are not represented as JS properties due to potential name<br>collisions, but you can get them via the getAttribute() function, and<br>you can set/change them via setAttribute(). You mention it yourself on<br>page 14. The whole DHTML / AJAX movement bases on that.
