How so? What's missing? File bugs! :) > Feel free to recommend otherwise but I'd like to see some reasons why. There's one simple reason: forward compatibility. Prototype 2.0 will stop extending prototype's of HTMLElement, therefore, using the dot property to set or retrieve attributes will no longer work (that is, until getters and setters are supported in all browsers). On top of that, using a unified API is always a good thing. Premature optimization isn't.
