Re: DOM mutation events

[Michael Glavassevich <mr...@ca.ibm.com>]

Hi Vlad,

Xerces implemented what was required by the DOM Level 2 Events
specification. I've never heard of DocumentObserver, but can tell you that
there are currently no plans to make enhancements above what is specified
by the standard.

Thanks.
