Hi Helder, thanks a lot for your tips.
I used your line taken from [1], and it worked. Apparently, you have to
pass a qualified attribute name which includes the prefix. This is even
specified in the org.w3c.dom.Element interface.
I also browsed the SVN repository, and it seems that XLinkSupport is
still omitting the prefix. The current code (revision 475477) is
public static void setXLinkHref(Element elt, String str) {
elt.setAttributeNS(XLINK_NAMESPACE_URI, XLINK_HREF_ATTRIBUTE, str);
}
where XLINK_HREF_ATTRIBUTE = "href".
It probably should be
elt.setAttributeNS(XLINK_NAMESPACE_URI, XLINK_HREF_QNAME, str);
with XLINK_HREF_QNAME = XLINK_PREFIX + ':' + XLINK_HREF_ATTRIBUTE.
Same goes for all other attribute getters and setters in XLinkSupport.
Should I maybe file a bug somewhere or are these functions intended to
work in another way?
Regards,
Gerrit
