HTML DOM  attribute 'selected' can't be set on option-elements

           Summary: HTML DOM  attribute 'selected' can't be set on option-
                    elements
           Product: Xerces2-J
           Version: 2.4.0
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: DOM
        AssignedTo: xerces-j-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: arno_schatz@yahoo.com


Since Xerces reverted to the original HTML DOM Level 1 API, the 'setSelected'
method is no longer available in the API. According to the spec the
'setDefaultSelected' should be used as server side API to set the
'selected'-Attribute on the Option-elements. However, the method-call
'setDeaultSelected(true)' will only result in the attribute 'default-selected'
to be set. This attribute is not valid according to the HTML 4.01 DTDs.
(I will send a patch later).
