Hi Joe,

thank you - I am sorry that I did not see it in the DOM spec. Nevertheless this 
behaviour of importNode() is absolutely incomprehensible, as I assume that 99% 
of all DOM users need my expected funtionality of importNode(). In the 
java.sun.com forums are dozens of user questions, why importNode() does not 
import all attributs of the node to be imported. I can hardly imagine a useful 
case, where default attrinbutes should not be imported. So the only workaround 
is to write my own deep copy routine, to import a node with unassigned default 
attrinutes- am I right?

Regards and thank you
J. Ruhe

The DOM spec explicitly says "Default attributes are not copied, though if 
the document being imported into defines default attributes for this 
element name, those are assigned. "
