[xmlc] org.enhydra.xml.xhtml.dom interfaces

Jake,

As I mentioned before, for no good reason, when I started using XMLC  
a couple years ago, I began using the XHTMLElement interfaces  
provided in the XMLC jars.  Recently, I've been trying to use the  
org.w3c.dom.html.HTMLElement interfaces like you suggested.  It makes  
sense to use the most generic interface available, and I'd rather  
have my code locked in to a W3C API than an Enhydra one (no offense!).

But I've been noticing that some setter methods just aren't there in  
the HTMLElement versions of all the tag types.  For instance,  
HTMLLabelElement.setFor() doesn't exist, but XHTMLLabelElement.setFor 
() does.

And all the setOnClick(), setMouseDown(), etc. methods are on  
XHTMLInputElement, but not on HTMLInputElement.  What's up with  
that?  Are they not standard HTML?  Is the W3C API just behind the  
times?

Which should I really be using?  Is it worth doing a s/XHTML/HTML/g  
on my entire code base?  Does the latest 2.3_RC1 "XMLC no longer  
wraps Xerces into its own namespace" have anything to do with this?   
(I haven't upgraded yet)

Just curious...

Cheers,
Erik
