Curt Arnold The "setNodeValue()" method for an attribute creates a Text node with the unparsed content of the string. Retrieve the attribute named "street" from the last child of of the fourth employee and assign the "Y&ent1;" string to its value attribute. This value is not yet parsed and therefore should still be the same upon retrieval. This test uses the "getNamedItem(name)" method from the NamedNodeMap interface. 2001-10-22
