     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-317?page=all ]

Michael Glavassevich updated XERCESJ-317:
-----------------------------------------

    Bugzilla Id:   (was: 9095)
      Component: DOM (HTML)
                     (was: DOM (XML))
    Description: 
For examples these 2 methods are final in HTMLElementImpl 
public final NodeList getElementsByTagName( String tagName )
public final NodeList getElementsByTagNameNS( String namespaceURI,
                                                  String localName )

By marking these methods, I can't over-ride these methods when I need to. And I 
need to do that if I need to integrate the DOM with javaScript engine (Rhino), 
since NodeList are not "Scriptable" (Rhino). If these methods are not final, I 
can inherit these methods and put a wrapper around the NodeList of the return 
value.
