It is my opinion that if you already know the names of your attributes, it would be more efficient to just walk the attribute list ONCE and keep picking out the attributes you encounter.
of course you are right but in my case the XML file is small. There are only 4 attribute lists defined in the DTD anyway and the XML file will have about 50 sets. getAttribute() should be fine?!
